As Waldwick mourns policeman’s sudden death, fellow cops cover

THE RECORD

Police officers from neighboring towns mobilized Friday to support their grieving Waldwick colleagues, providing 24-hour coverage for the borough so that the town’s officers could mourn the sudden death of 32-year-old Patrolman Christopher Goodell.

Waldwick’s police cruisers remained parked at headquarters while officers from nearby towns answered all emergency calls. And they will continue to do so until Wednesday morning, the day after Goodell’s funeral.

“It’s the natural thing,” Ridgewood Police Chief John Ward said. “Our guys are volunteering to be there. These are the events you never, ever need to ask people to step up for.”

Goodell, a decorated Marine Corps veteran who joined the Waldwick force five years ago, was killed around 1:30 a.m. Thursday when a tractor-trailer rammed into his parked police car on the shoulder of Route 17 while he was conducting a radar patrol.
