1. On June 1st, 2024, members of the Guttenberg Police Department’s Patrol Division responded to the area of 70th
Street and Park Avenue after receiving a report of someone screaming for police inside of an establishment. Upon entry
into the establishment, officers met with employees of the establishment and a male who was yelling at them. During
their on-scene investigation, officers attempted to order the male to leave the establishment at the request of the
employees. After numerous attempts, the male continued to refuse. At that point, he was informed he would be placed
under arrest, after which he began to fight and resist the officers attempts to place him in handcuffs. After a brief scuffle
with the male, officers successfully arrested 38-year-old Lyubomyr Masliy of Brooklyn, NY. Mr. Masliy was then
transported to the Palisades Medical Center for treatment. Later, Mr. Masliy was transported to the Guttenberg Police
Department for his arrest processing. At the Guttenberg Police Department, as a result of the investigation, Mr. Masliy
was charged with burglary [2C:18-2A(1)], criminal trespass [2C:18-3A], defiant trespass [2C:18-3B(1)], resisting arrest

administration of law [2C:29-1A], criminal mischief [2C:17-3A(2)], and disorderly conduct [2C:33-2A(1)]. Upon the
completion of his arrest processing, Mr. Masliy was issued his complaint warrant and lodged in the Hudson County
Correctional Center.
The charges above are merely accusations. Every defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven
guilty in a court of law.
