California Man & Woman Arrested After Violent Shore Town Home Invasion

POINT PLEASANT BOROUGH – A shocking daytime home invasion rattled a quiet shore community last week when two suspects from California allegedly kicked in a door, stole valuables, and even fired a gunshot before fleeing—only to be caught hours later.

What Happened?

• When? Around 1:35 PM last Thursday
• Where? A home on Barton Avenue
• How? The female suspect, Oleyah Brown, 21, allegedly kicked open the back door while the homeowner was inside.
• Gunfire: The male suspect, Jaheim D. Wilson, 23, fired one gunshot during the break-in, police say.
• Theft: The duo stole multiple items before escaping.

How Were They Caught?

Thanks to quick police work, Wilson and Brown were tracked down and arrested just nine hours later in Toms River. Both now face serious charges:

• Both charged with: Home invasion burglary (1st-degree crime)
• Wilson also charged with: Two weapons offenses

As of Monday, both remain locked up in the Ocean County Jail awaiting court proceedings.

Why This Case Stands Out

• Cross-Country Crime: It’s unusual for suspects from California (Stockton area) to target a shore community home.
• Bold Timing: Breaking in in broad daylight shows brazenness.
• Gun Danger: Firing a weapon during a burglary escalates charges significantly.

What’s Next?

Home invasions are taken extremely seriously—if convicted, the pair could face 10+ years in prison. Police haven’t revealed what was stolen or if the suspects have local ties, but more details may emerge in court.
