  3. Why is there no follow-up anywhere on who these people were? Were the Ridgewood residents? Were they in Ridgewood for a particular reason? ISn’t this of public interest.
    Remember when we had the Ridgewood Newspaper which published a police report.
    Look at this Franklin Lakes Police information blotter webpage – why Can’t Ridgewood have that?
