28:04Now PlayingAround 2:02 PM on July 30, 2024, Sergeant Tyler Soto and Officers Jairo De La Cruz, Valentino Salgado and Zackary Guido with the Hoboken Police Department were dispatched to a report of a shoplifting at ShopRite on 900 Madison Street. They arrived on scene around 2:06 PM and walked upstairs to the loss prevention office. In the loss prevention office, they met with Felix and made contact with the alleged shoplifter, who was identified as Alcira Mojica.
Felix informed the officers that she attempted to shoplift $45.44 worth of items and handed him a copy of the receipt. Felix also told the officers that she had repeatedly shoplifted from ShopRite on prior occasions and they captured her on their facial recognition system. Alcira was placed under arrest, handcuffed, and escorted to the patrol car. A search of her incident to arrest indicated that she was in possession of prohibited items.
She was transported to the Hoboken Police Department by the officers for further processing. At police HQ, she was searched in more detail by Officer Jessica Arebalo. It was discovered that she had 3 outstanding warrants from Union City. She was charged with shoplifting under 2C:20-11B(1), given new court dates for her other warrants, and released with a summons.
Court records indicate that on September 10, 2024, the court entered a “Conditional Dismissal” of her shoplifting charge and she was required to pay a total of $333 in fines and fees.

Our content is shared for educational and news gathering purposes. We are in compliance with YouTube's Fair Use Policy because we edit several long clips into a concise story. This is similar to other law enforcement channels on YouTube. All videos and case documents were obtained pursuant to the New Jersey Open Public Records Act, N.J.S.A. 47:1A-1 et seq. (P.L. 2024, c.16). Defendants are considered innocent until proven guilty.
The New Jersey Supreme Court has previously affirmed in Salzano v. North Jersey Media Group, 993 A.2d 778 (2010) that “The fair-report privilege reflects the judgment that the need, in a self-governing society, for free-flowing information about matters of public interest outweighs concerns over the uncompensated injury to a person's reputation.” This video advances a compelling public interest. The summary of events was based on records that are “open to public view through open access to public records” as defined in the Salzano case. In Ramos v. Flowers, 429 N.J. Super. 13, the Appellate Division of the Superior Court has also affirmed the right to film law enforcement interactions.
