Ridgewood NJ, An adult male who claimed to have been the victim of an armed robbery and assault brought Ridgewood police units out in force on Thursday evening, 09/29. The incident reportedly took place at the intersection of Godwin and Ackerman Avenues in Ridgewood shortly before 2100 hours. After questioning by Ridgewood PD officers, aided by a Spanish speaking patrol officer from neighboring Glen Rock, the man’s story was determined to have been fabricated. The injuries he sustained appeared to have been consistent with those of a fall. He was evaluated and treated on the scene by Ridgewood EMS volunteers. There was no information available as to whether the individual was charged with making a false police report.
