Ocean County man gets 4 years in DUI crash for Aggravated Assault
In a recent court hearing, Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer of Ocean County announced that William Andujar of Whiting, 52 years old was sentenced to four years imprisonment at New Jersey State Prison by the Honorable Judge Kimarie Rahillfor aggravated assault in the case related to the 2020 incident in Berkeley Township.
The Aggravated Assault sentence falls under the No Early Release Act, demanding Andujar to serve at least 85 percent of his prison term before being qualified for parole. Moreover, the man guilty of aggravated assault has a consecutive one-year sentence that was imposed for a probation violation.
The Aggravated Assault charges stem from a November 2, 2020, collision where William Andujar, driving a 2010 Honda CRV, rear-ended a 2003 Hyundai Elantra driven by Susan Ewing of South Toms River, 44 years old. The crash forced both cars off the road and into a wooded area, severely injuring Ewing, and making Andujar suspect for aggravated assault.
