Toms River: This afternoon we began to receive tips that there was lots of activity at the scene of the Americana Motel (Now Parkway Motel) in TR on NJ 166. This motel has been a haven for drugs and prostitution for at least two decades in town now. Toms River PD, Human Services, and other authorities began to shut the place down and relocate residents. Unknown how many people or families called this motel home, but it appears it is no more. We also don’t know the violations are severe to keep the place closed, or if they have to make temporary repairs and will be allowed to reopen.
This is a developing story, and we have reached out to TRPD for clarification and have filed OPRA’s for the incident.

Ocean County Scanner News oh I was just being honest! !
Is there any hotel in TR that is not a drug infested shit hole?
If you had family members visiting out of state, I’m curious where you all would have them stay????
I’m almost embarrassed I live in this town still ?
When my family and I were between houses back in October, we stayed at the Days Inn on 37 @ Clifton. It was nice, and there didn’t appear to be addicts or hookers roaming around.
I like the clarion on 37. Went to a beautiful wedding there.
