Police Arrest Toms River High School North Student In Online Bullying Incident

An 18-year-old student from Toms River High School North has been charged with harrassment following an online bullying incident that occured earlier in the week.

"Scot Donley, Toms River, was charged by Detective John Turner as a result of the investigation into postings on the internet that caused concerns last week," said Toms River Police Chief Michael Mastronardy.

Toms River school officials worked cooperatively with law enforcement officials in the investigation, Mastronardy added.

Earlier in the week, Toms River Regional Schools Superintendent Frank Roselli said the website hsmemes.com had "a flood of negative and abusive postings" posted anonymously between students. This prompted the superintendent to ask for additional police presence at both Toms River High School North and East.

Roselli said made the decision Monday night to add police presence at the two schools. Tuesday an additional officer and police car patroled high schools North and East but the day otherwise proceeded without interruption.

The site, hsmemes.com, has been blocked from all district computers, meaning it can no longer be accessed from classroom, library or other desktop computers in the schools, school officials said
