Get json object in Array based on key and value in Java

I have a Json body like the example below. I need to extract the value from a key that has another key with a specific value in an array. I am passing in a JsonNode with everything in the detail component of the message, I can easily extract from each level, however, I’m struggling with the array.

In this case, I need to extract the value of “value” (Police/Fire/Accident Report) from the object in the array which has a key/value pair of “name”:”documentTitle”. I understand this is a JSONArray, but I can’t find a good example that shows me how to extract the values for an object in the array that contains a certain key/value pair, I don’t think I can rely on getting the object in position [2] in the array as the same objects may not always be present in the additionalMetadata array.

Sample Json:

Loop through the json array and extract the json object with name documentTitile. From that json object you can get the value
