Hawthorne NJ, according to the Hawthorne Police department just after midnight last night, 4 males from Newark and Irvington stole a Lexus from Ridgewood. The stolen vehicle was spotted by officers in the area of Lincoln Avenue. The vehicle fled from officers and led police on a pursuit on and off 208 and through several Hawthorne streets. When the vehicle crashed at Parker Ave in the area of Tenth and Eleventh, officers pursued the suspects on foot through backyards, over fences, and through the woods. Your officers were able to capture all 4 suspects, taking them in to custody and turning them over to Bergen County officers for charging. Another great job by our officers, Lets hope the keys were not left in the car>
