Fair Lawn, Saddle Brook Won't Impose Halloween Curfews

Neither Fair Lawn nor Saddle Brook will impose curfews in light of recent luring incidents around the county, police chiefs from both towns confirmed.

While both Fair Lawn and Saddle Brook police departments are devoting additional time and manpower to reduce the possibillity that a child abduction occurs in their respective communities, neither town plans to impose a Halloween curfew in wake of the county's recent spate of luring incidents. Fair Lawn Police Chief Erik Rose said he didn't believe a curfew was necessary because most young children trick-or-treat during the day and are accompanied by parents, either on foot or in a vehicle. The department will, as it always has, have officers and reserve officers on-duty to provide extra protection for the holiday. Saddle Brook, which already imposes a general curfew, will stick to it for the holiday but doesn't plan to go any further. "We…

Luring Attempts Put Bergen County On Edge As Halloween Approaches

Some Bergen County police chiefs are issuing Mischief Night and Halloween curfews following more than a dozen recent luring attempts in the county.

More than a dozen attempted child lurings in Bergen County over the past weeks have police on heightened alert less than a week before thousands of children will take to the streets on Halloween. In New Milford, Police Chief Frank Papapietro has issued an 8 p.m. curfew on Halloween and the evening before, and he is calling on other police chiefs to follow suit. The discovery of a missing South Jersey girl’s body early Tuesday morning shone an even brighter light on the seriousness of the luring attempts, which have occurred in at least 10 towns. "Although no connection has been made between Autumn Pasquale's death and the recent incidents of luring in Bergen County, there is a concern among law enforcement — does the activity amp up from …

Fair Lawn Police on Alert for Child Lurers

A possible child luring incident occurred on Pine Avenue Tuesday morning.

In wake of recent child luring incidents in the nearby communities of Ridgewood, Hawthorne, Maywood and Hackensack, Fair Lawn police are remaining vigilant for suspicious vehicles and individuals in town. During roll call, officers have been prepped with descriptions of possible cars, people and other relevant details about luring incidents in other towns, as provided by those town's police departments, Sgt.

A Pine Avenue resident told police that around 8 a.m. he observed a dark Jeep stop near two children who were on their way to school. The children proceeded to …

I live on Pine Ave, so here's the truth.. 2 children were on there way to school when a dark jeep pulled up next to them, stopped and waved them to his car. The kids ran the opposite way and when a neighbor started walking over to the jeep he speed away. So this wasn't an attempted luring??. If this man in a jeep wanted directions or something else, why didn't he just ask the neighbor that was …   more ›
