Ridgewood NJ, A telephone call from a citizen to Ridgewood PD regarding two (2) adult males who were sitting on a curb smoking cigarettes after abandoning their vehicle in the middle of a busy intersection resulted in police making two (2) arrests, impounding a vehicle, and calling upon the services of Midland Park PD and the Bergen County Sheriff’s Office K9 Division to assist in effecting the arrests and conducting the subsequent investigation. The incident began at 1824 hours at the intersection of South Maple Avenue and Dayton Street. No information was available at the scene as to the nature of charges associated with the arrests, however police officers were observed administering a field sobriety test to the individual suspected to be the vehicle’s driver.
Very odd. Looking forward to the follow up story…..
They were at Mango Jam then drove off.
You just can’t make this shit up.
Dude, where’s my car?
Just cruising along the street drunk or high, pedestrians, bicyclists, people with dogs, other drivers all at risk. Frightening.
The Ridgewood cops are the best. Two guys stoned out of their minds and they were taken in without any violence or struggle. Our police force is awesome.
Yeah they are good at talking dudes like this out of further misbehavior. A skill that is often necessary!
Gotta give credit to the Ridgewood police. They are well trainied professionals who know how to perform their duties with a level of respect and restraint they deem appropriate to the situation and in so doing they are often able to defuse what otherwise could have turned into a confrontation. Just look at the pic.Seemingly friendly and non-confrontational…..but backed up by officers from two other departments just in case things went bad. Consummate professionals !! We are so lucky to have them.
Just curious, but did the police frisk these guys before engaging in strategic small talk? Would hate to lose an officer due to a desire to appear polite to disoriented strangers.
The big guy looks a little like the Kardashian brother. Rob is his name, no? Maybe these two were filming a remake of Cheech and Chong’s “Up in Smoke” and their SAG representative demanded a break at an inopportune time.
Looks racist to me… lets riot
