A Glen Rock woman was struck and killed by a commuter train in Ramsey last week. Christiana Lee, 21, was struck by a New Jersey Transit commuter train when she reportedly walked around a crossing gate, which was in the down position and flashing to indicate the approach of a train, and stepped onto the tracks. The incident, which occurred at 7:41 a.m., was still under investigation at press time. Eyewitnesses said Lee was walking with her head down, possibly using a 4-29-09 karen/janine cell phone, and did not look up as the train

She was a pianist and was a former member of the Glen Rock Middle School Band. A 2007 honors graduate of Glen Rock High School, Lee was attending SUNY at Binghamton. Lee was a supporter of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention in memory of her friend Zachary Toskovich.

Allendale Mayor Vince Barra said last week that a $5,000 study could possibly lead to a shared service agreement among the Allendale, Saddle River, and Upper Saddle River police departments. “We’re going to get the results of the study back in about six weeks,” Barra said late last week. “This is very preliminary. It’s just to give us some ideas and options.” The Allendale Council awarded the $5,000 contract to Jersey Professional Management of Cranford to conduct a preliminary assessment of the Allendale Police Department’s organization and to provide recommendations. Earlier this year, the borough approved a resolution to explore the sharing of police services including patrol and dispatch. Officials site budget constraints as an

impetus for the review. Mayor Barra stressed that the study is extremely preliminary and that no decision had been made at the present time. The concept, officials said, is not a merger of the three police departments, but rather one of shared services. Chief Robert Herndon of the Allendale Police Department, a 41-year police veteran and Vietnam combat veteran, had announced his retirement earlier this year and will be leaving the department later this month. Allendale has a completely new police headquarters, completed a few years ago with state-of-the-art facilities and equipment. J. KOSTER
