A grandfather stands accused of operating a vessel under the influence of alcohol during an incident last month in Barnegat Bay that resulted in the deaths of two young children, according to prosecutors. Stephen Schneider, 64, allegedly struck a navigation channel marker while piloting the watercraft, authorities said.
The incident has drawn significant law enforcement attention as investigators work to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the fatalities. Charges against Schneider remain pending as the case moves through the judicial system.
Officials have not yet released additional details regarding the identities of the victims or the specific charges Schneider may face. The New Jersey boating community has expressed concern about safety protocols and enforcement on local waterways following the tragedy.
