BERKELEY TOWNSHIP-Things got bizarre this week in Berkeley Township after a woman was spotted removing a sign from the home of a supporter of Mayor Carmen Amato.

The incident was captured on video and that’s when things got strange.

Days before Halloween, a woman dressed in a witch outfit removed the sign from the home.  Later, it was revealed that the witch was none other than the mayor’s opponent, Laura Shaw.

Shaw, when confronted about the incident said it was a misunderstanding, but returned to her home and burned Amato’s sign in her firepit.

Authorities were contacted, but it’s not sure if charges would be filed in the matter.

Mayor Carmen Amato declined to discuss the spooky encounter as being irrelevant to his victory.  Amato went on to defeat Shaw by 60 points in Tuesday night’s election.
