During each call, various businesses along or near North Black Horse Pike were named as the locations where the incidents were taking place, police said.

Following a three-month investigation, authorities determined the calls were being placed by a 28-year-old Willingboro man temporarily residing at the Pike Inn Motel in Monroe Township.He was placed in Salem County Correctional Facility pending a detention hearing on the charges.
