Starbucks Ridgewood

All of this negative car thief talk is nonsense!
.
I leave my car running (sometimes with my toddler inside) when I run into Starbucks and get my double latte (I’m useless without it in the morning!). I leave my purse in the car too since its too cumbersome to drag into the store when I’ll just be in and out. Don’t worry, I bring my cell phone with me – I’m not stupid! Besides, I’d die if I lost it (although it would be a good excuse to upgrade:) ) .

I’m so glad I live in Ridgewood and not Westwood !

To Our Residents,

The Westwood Police Department would like to make the community aware of some recent car burglaries and stolen vehicles from around the Pascack Valley. It appears that there is a group targeting this area for higher end car thefts and also committing vehicle burglaries while they are here.

In order to help prevent being a victim,
We make the following recommendations to our residents:
1. Stay vigilant
2. Report suspicious activity
3. Lock your car
4. Do not leave valuables in your vehicle
5. Do not leave your key fob inside your car

Please do not hesitate to call the police department if something doesn’t seem right. We are glad to respond in order to protect our neighborhoods.

Thank you for your cooperation and have a Happy and Safe New Year!!
