This morning at 6:34 a.m., FLPD responded to two pedestrians struck at Broadway/32nd Street. Upon arrival, officers, with assistance from Fair Lawn and Bergen County EMS, rendered aid to the 47-year-old mother and her 5-year-old child, both Fair Lawn residents. Both were transported to Hackensack Hospital. The child suffered severe head injuries, and the mother suffered minor injuries.

The driver ultimately fled the scene. Investigative work by Fair Lawn Detectives located the vehicle and driver in a neighboring town. With the assistance of the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office, the driver was taken into custody, charged with several crimes and motor vehicle summonses, and transported to the Bergen County Jail.

The FLPD would like to take this opportunity to remind motorists that if you are involved in a crash, the right thing to do is summon the police for assistance and not leave the scene.

If we all take a moment and care for each other, we can accomplish so much more.

This past week, our Fair Lawn Police Department Junior Police Academy cadets had an incredible experience filled with learning, teamwork, and unforgettable memories!

Throughout the week, cadets participated in drill instruction, learned about drug and alcohol awareness, internet safety, and the important work of the Bomb Squad and K-9 Unit. They also enjoyed a fun dodgeball tournament, toured West Point, challenged themselves in fitness competitions, visited the Statue of Liberty and the Intrepid Museum, and wrapped up the week by learning lifesaving CPR and Stop the Bleed skills with Hackensack Meridian Health.

Thank you to all of our instructors, guest presenters, and community partners who helped make this year’s Junior Police Academy a tremendous success. We hope our cadets had as much fun as we had spending the week with them!

Our thoughts and prayers are with our fire department, especially Company 3.  We met firefighter Berlando Drake on many calls. She was the definition of community and volunteerism and an inspiration for female firefighters and all! Rest in peace 🙏🏽
