Residents in Keyport, New Jersey, are concerned that a cluster of cancer cases could be connected to a toxic landfill in the town.
Residents in Keyport, New Jersey, are concerned that a cluster of cancer cases could be connected to a toxic landfill in the town. John Schneider teaches history and knows Keyport extensively.
He's written books on the area, including a book about the Old Aeromarine Industrial Park. For decades, it has been a major concern for residents who say dozens of neighbors have died of cancer and dozens of others have been diagnosed with cancer. Ginger Morris is a longtime resident, and her son became curious after toxic slag was discovered along the shore near the site. The Morrises have relatives who are battling cancer.
"Nothing has been done since 2010 when they knew it was causing and did nothing. Why? That's a big question why?
" Morris said. His home sits right next to the site and is determined to get to the bottom of what he says has been disasterous to the town he loves. Have a breaking news tip or an idea for a story we should cover? Send it to Eyewitness News using the form below.
