RIDGEWOOD – An unruly crowd on Chestnut Street on Thursday morning was so rowdy that it forced Ridgewood police to call for backup from surrounding towns.
The incident occurred at 2 a.m., when most of the bars close up, said Lt. Todd Harris.
Harris estimated that nearly 300 college-age men and women were disturbing the peace.
Police surmised that most of the crowd was exiting two bars on Chestnut Street and one around the block that were just closing their doors.
The pack disintegrated into rowdiness — shoving one another, throwing punches and shouting.
