Reality TV personality Jennifer Aydin and her family found themselves in a frightening situation over the weekend as chaos erupted on the boardwalk in Seaside Heights, NJ. Amidst fears of a potential mass shooter on the loose, a large crowd scattered in panic, causing mayhem and confusion.
Aydin, known for her role on "Real Housewives of New Jersey," took to Instagram to share a clip of the incident, expressing relief that everyone in their group was safe. The video captured the sound of sirens blaring while her children voiced their concerns in the background.
While the exact cause of the commotion remains unclear, reports from NJ.com indicated that numerous beachgoers were caught up in the confusion. Witnesses described a scene where people fled from the boardwalk, with officers rushing to the scene in search of potential gunmen or victims.
Despite the intense response from law enforcement, no evidence of a shooting or injuries was found, according to police detective Steve Korman. Videos circulating on social media showed the chaotic aftermath, with individuals running in all directions as armed officers attempted to maintain order.
Just a short distance from the incident, a separate violent incident occurred in Ocean City, NJ, where a 15-year-old was stabbed by an unidentified assailant on the boardwalk. The victim sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was hospitalized for treatment.
Following the ordeal, some social media users criticized Aydin for owning property in Seaside Heights, questioning her decision to invest in the area. Despite the backlash, Aydin chose to stay indoors with her family, opting for a quiet night in after the chaotic events.
As the situation unfolded, Aydin shared on her Instagram Stories that they had a cozy at-home slumber party to comfort the children. While the incident was undoubtedly alarming, the reality star and her loved ones were grateful to be safe and sound after the scare on the boardwalk.
