ACCREDITATION PROGRAM - New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police.

During the June 9th, 2026, council meeting, Chief Thomas Greeley and Deputy Chief Matthew de la Rosa accepted the certification of accreditation from Mr. Harry Delgado, the Accreditation Program Director of the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police.

This is the first accreditation in the history of the Englewood Police Department. This is result of tireless hours of work by Deputy Chief de la Rosa and Lt. Robert Occhuzzi, who were the managers of the project. Accreditation is a seal of approval from an independent agency. By being accredited, the EPD illustrates the pursuit of excellence and a willingness to meet and exceed industry standards. We would like to thank the governing body and the City Manager for their support during this long and arduous process.

A carjacker yanked an 80-year-old River Edge woman from her Jeep during a struggle in the parking lot of a Walgreens in Bergenfield on Sunday morning, then sped off with her purse before police in Teaneck captured him, authorities said.

Borough resident Jordan Rucker, 35, was carrying a knife when he was caught, Bergenfield Police Capt. William Duran said.

The victim thankfully sustained minor injuries for which she was hospitalized, the captain said.

Rucker is a familiar figure who residents say dances outside the BP station across the street from the South Washington Avenue pharmacy.

They said he first went into the Walgreens and “knocked things over” before confronting the woman in the parking lot shortly before 8:30 a.m. Sunday (May 3rd).

She refused when he demanded the keys to her 2017 Cherokee, Duran said, so Rucker “forcefully removed her from the vehicle.”

He also snatched her purse away during a struggle, the captain said.

Members of the Bergenfield Volunteer Ambulance Corps took the victim to Hackensack University Medical Center with injuries that he said weren’t threatening injuries.

Meanwhile, alerts were transmitted for the Jeep, which had headed south on Washington Avenue.

Teaneck police stopped the vehicle on East Forest Avenue and took Rucker into custody around 9:30 a.m.

He was carrying a four-inch knife, Duran said.

Rucker had prior arrests for assault in Teaneck in 2017, for aggravated assault in Little Falls in 2012 and for making terroristic threats there in 2013, criminal records show.

Bergenfield police charged him with first-degree carjacking, robbery, simple assault, making terroristic threats, theft, theft of a motor vehicle and weapons offenses.

Rucker – listed as a U.S.-born American citizen – remained held in Bergen County’s jail this morning pending a first appearance in Central Judicial Processing Court in Hackensack.
