Haddonfield Man, Son Charged In Voorhees Bank Robbery

VOORHEES TOWNSHIP, NJ — A Haddonfield man and his son have been charged in connection with a bank robbery that took place in Voorhees in April, authorities announced Monday night.

Jermaine Johnson, 43, of Haddonfield, was arrested by the US Marshals NY/NJ Fugitive Task Force at a residence on the Unit block of Linden Ave. on May 18, according to Acting Camden County Prosecutor Jill S. Mayer and Voorhees Twp. Police Chief Louis Bordi.

His son, 23-year-old Safeek Johnson of Philadelphia, was arrested today by the US Marshals NY/NJ Fugitive Task Force at the intersection of Rockland Rd. and Old York Road in Philadelphia on Monday, authorities said. He was in possession of a handgun at the time of his arrest, police said.
