JACKSON - A suspicious person investigation led to a weapons arrest at Six Flags Great Adventure, Capt. Steven Laskiewicz said in a news release.

Jonathan Fruchter, 38, of Allentown, was charged with unlawful possession of weapons, possession of a weapon for unlawful purpose, possession of magazines capable of holding in excess of 10 rounds, and possession of handcuffs.

Officers arrived to the scene and were told by security that Fruchter had been escorted out of the park, but returned to harass employees since he did not get hired, Laskiewicz said.

Police spoke with Fruchter and during the investigation learned he was in possession of a handgun in his vehicle parked at the amusement park. Officers then searched the vehicle to find a Glock 9mm handgun in a holster, three loaded 15-round magazines, a machete, a tactical tomahawk, several knives, handcuffs and a New York Police Department hat.

That night, detectives and the Ocean County Sheriff's Department K-9 Unit assisted with the investigation at Fruchter's home in Allentown. The search resulted in finding an AR-15 rifle, several 30-round magazines for the rifle, and a Sig Sauer .40-caliber handgun with ammunition.
