Around 11:01 PM on August 29, 2025, both Sergeant Michael Yee and S.O. Colin Coder with the Belmar Police Department were on post at D'Jais. They were advised by employees there that 2 females had been involved in a physical altercation inside, and that they had both been asked to leave the premises. The officers initially told both of them to just leave, but they did not heed the officers' advice. One of the females, later identified as 26-year-old Julia Russo, approached Sergeant Yee to file a complaint against the other female because she had allegedly assaulted her. As he was about to take the complaint, she was approached by the other female, who was later identified as 23-year-old Olivia Davino. As Olivia approached Julia, she kicked Olivia in front of the officers. After being kicked by Julia, Olivia punched Julia in the face. At this time, both Julia and Olivia were placed under arrest. They were both transported separately to the station, processed, and released pending their respective court appearances in the Belmar Municipal Court. Julia was charged with Disorderly Conduct (2C:33-2A(1)) and Interference with Business (Ordinance 16-26). Olivia was charged Disorderly Conduct (2C:33-2A(1)), Obstruction (2C:29-1A), and Interference with Business (Ordinance 16-26). Court records indicate that on November 11, 2025, Julia's charge of Disorderly Conduct was dismissed, while she pleaded guilty to Interference with Business. As a result of her plea agreement, Julia had to pay a total of $790 in fines. Court records also indicate that on 9, 2025, Olivia's charge of Disorderly Conduct was dismissed, her Obstruction charge was downgraded to a noise violation (Ordinance 16-3.1), while she pleaded guilty to Interference with Business. As a result of her plea agreement, Olivia had to pay a total of $1,180 in fines. ---------------------------------------------- Please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and consider supporting this channel (email us for more information).
