• Police charged a Millville man with receiving stolen property after he was stopped Sunday night driving a luxury car reported stolen from the Atlantic City nightclub where his brother works as a bouncer.
  Colton Seldon, 20, of the 1100 block of Holly Berry Court was taken to the Cumberlan County jail after the 2005 Mercedes Benz he was driving was stopped at Delsea Drive and Park Avenue.
  Police also charged Seldon with possession of marijuana and issued him a summons for driving while his privilege is suspended and served an unrelated warrant for failure to appear in Millville Municipal Court.
  Officer Eduardo Ocasio Jr. was on patrol around 9:20 p.m. on Park Avenue near the Boulevard when he saw the white Mercedes going west. A computer check of the license plate revealed the car's owner Robert A. Nark reported it stolen at 10:30 a.m. from Déjà Vu nightclub in Atlantic City.
  Seldon told police his brother, Jackie Mullins of Atlantic City, came to him around 1 p.m. and asked him to keep the car for him. Seldon said he asked Mullins if the car was stolen but he said it was not. Seldon said he thought the car might have belonged to Mullins' girlfriend who has a good paying job.
  He also indicated that he decided to drive the Mercedes around 6 p.m. even though his license is suspended.
  Seldon said he picked up two friends and headed for the Franklinville Skating Rink. The passengers were released without charges.
  Nark told police he let his daughter use the car and she told him she left the keys on the bar at Déjà Vu while she went to a restroom Sunday morning. When she returned the keys and the car were gone.
  Seldon, who was waiting to be transported to the county jail, overheard the conversation between Ocasio and the victim.
  "Did you say Déjà Vu nightclub in Atlantic City, that's where my brother works," Seldon is quoted as saying in a police report.
  Atlantic City detectives were informed of his statement.
