Ocean County inmate held without bail on assault charge, immigration detainer filed
Toms River, NJ – A man booked into the Ocean County Jail is being held without bail after authorities charged him in connection with an alleged assault earlier this week.
Records show Yair Riano Martinez was committed to the county facility on Sunday. He faces one count under New Jersey statute 2C:12-1A(1) — attempting to purposely or knowingly cause bodily injury to another.
In addition to the criminal charge, federal officials lodged an immigration detainer against Martinez, according to jail records. The detainer, issued by U.S. immigration authorities, means he may face additional proceedings regardless of the outcome of the state case.
No court hearing has been scheduled as of Monday, and further details about the alleged incident leading to his arrest have not been released.
