Four New Jersey teenagers allegedly stole a $220,000 Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon and took it on a joyride that ended in a deadly crash, killing a 67-year-old grandmother and her long-time partner, New York Post<\/a> reported.\u00a0The 2024 luxury SUV was reportedly stolen early Saturday morning. Police began tracking the vehicle around 3:40 am in nearby Longport after an officer attempted to stop it. Several hours later, officers in Hamilton Township spotted the G-Wagon again and pursued it.<\/p>\n

Shortly before 8 am, however, the SUV was travelling on the wrong side of the road when it collided head-on with a Hyundai sedan near Route 50 and Third Street in Mays Landing, according to the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office.<\/p>\n

The impact sent the Hyundai careening into a nearby gas station and killed both people inside. They were identified as 54-year-old Robert Barr Jr. and 67-year-old Alice Stilwell, both from Egg Harbour Township.<\/p>\n

Stilwell was described as a beloved mother and grandmother, while Barr was her long-time partner. A GoFundMe campaign<\/a> set up by a friend of Stilwell’s family said the couple had been together for years and was raising money to help with funeral expenses.<\/p>\n

The suspects reportedly escaped from the wreck with little or no serious injury and tried to flee on foot. Police arrested all four shortly afterward.<\/p>\n

One of the suspects, 18-year-old Nayshaun Brown of Atlantic City, is an adult, NJ.com reported.<\/a>\u00a0The other three are minors, and their names have not been released.<\/p>\n

The four have been charged with conspiracy to commit aggravated assault, joyriding, eluding police and receiving a stolen motor vehicle. Authorities have not said which of the four was driving when the crash occurred.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors said officers had lost sight of the G-Wagon just minutes before the fatal collision. The investigation into the crash and the circumstances surrounding the alleged theft remains ongoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Four New Jersey teenagers allegedly stole a $220,000 Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon and took it on a joyride that ended…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":78819,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20951],"tags":[57718,50096,57715,57721,33747,45136,3622,57720,57717,2597,57716,57719,57714],"class_list":["post-78818","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mercedes-benz","tag-alice-stillwell","tag-car-chase","tag-couple-killed","tag-elderly-couple","tag-luxury-suv","tag-mercedes-benz-g-wagon","tag-mercedes-benz","tag-new-jersey-crash","tag-new-jersey-teens","tag-police-chase","tag-robert-barr-jr","tag-stolen-vehicle","tag-us-teenagers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78818","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=78818"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78818\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/78819"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=78818"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=78818"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/germany\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=78818"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
