The North Haledon Police Department is under the command of Chief Todd Darby, Captain Marc Rowe and Lieutenants David Parenta and Anthony Conforti. We are comprised of twenty sworn Police Officers, including the Chief, Captain, two Lieutenants, four Sergeants, one Detective Sergeant, one Detective and eight Patrol Officers, one of which is assigned to traffic enforcement and is also the liaison to
the schools through the LEAD program. Two Class II Special Police Officers supplement the patrol force, four full-time dispatchers and part-time dispatchers. All patrol officers and a majority of the civilian staff have received training as Emergency Medical Technicians. Along with the defibrillators carried in the police units, this training enables members of the Police Department to respond to medical emergencies and begin first aid and/or lifesaving efforts prior to the response of emergency medical personnel. Emphasizing the importance of education, fourteen officers have, or are pursuing, degrees in criminal justice. Eight of these officers have already gone on to receive their Masters Degree in Public Administration and Human Resources. All officers receive ongoing training in law enforcement practices by attending in-service training at the police academies located in Passaic County and throughout the state. Please remember to report any suspicious activity and to call 9-1-1 to report an emergency or 973-423-1111 for any other police matter. Mission Statement:
