A Sayreville police sergeant may serve 180 days — or no time at all — as part of a plea deal in which he admitted he was drunk when he crashed his car at 70 mph into two vehicles seriously injuring a man.

Police reports say Jeffrey Kutz, 58, then a 22-year veteran of the force, was so drunk he urinated himself and needed assistance walking to an ambulance after his truck plowed into the parked car and dump truck in the shoulder of Route 9 South in Old Bridge on Dec. 18.

Kutz, who has since agreed to quit his job, pleaded guilty in April to assault by auto and drunk driving. Middlesex Superior Court Presiding Judge Michael A. Toto on Tuesday sentenced him to a 180-day suspended jail term and three years of probation.

Toto will decide at a hearing in six months if Kutz has abided by the conditions of his probation and whether he will actually serve the jail sentence, according to Mark Spivey, a spokesman for the Union County Prosecutor’s Office. That office prosecuted the case due to a conflict of interest in the Middlesex County Prosecutor’s Office.

Also as part of the plea deal, Kutz forfeited his position in the police department and agreed to have an ignition interlock device on his vehicle for a year, as well as a seven-month license suspension, Spivey said.

His attorney, Joseph Benedict of New Brunswick, was unavailable for comment this week but told NJ Advance Media in January that his client had no memory of the accident.

“I know he feels terrible that someone was hurt... It’s anathema to his calling in life” to help people, Benedict said.

After allegedly drinking at the home of another officer, Kutz drove his Dodge pickup truck into the two vehicles just after midnight on Dec. 18 south of the Route 18 overpass.

A broken-down dump truck was stopped on the shoulder of Route 9 south, with a car parked behind it, when Kutz’s pickup plowed into the car, crushing it against the dump truck and trapping the occupant in the wreckage, according to police.

The man in the car, who was associated in some way with the dump truck company, was extricated and airlifted to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, police said. He was treated and released from the hospital and the dump truck driver was not injured, according to authorities.

Kutz was initially unconscious, police wrote. In their reports, responding officers described him as agitated, unaware of where he was, slurring, smelling of alcohol and unsteady on his feet. Asked where he was coming from, he told an officer, “a driveway,” according to one report.

He was taken to a hospital to have blood drawn and released with a summons, the reports say.

Kutz was one of the most experienced cops in the Sayreville Police Department at the time and earned a salary of $134,460, according to state records.
