I believe that Mr. Scanlan possibly visited a home across the street from mine; however, my only conclusion for this is the placement of two campaign signs for Mr. Scanlan on that property. Further, the e-mail I used to contact the township committee, on a global basis, to compliment them on the township performance after the October storm is one I reserve for private e-mails, and I almost never give out. I believe Mr. Scanlan is mistaken in his recollection of this event. I would appreciate that this be brought as a correction to the article as the facts as stated are in error, and I would appreciate a correction so the matter of how Mr. Scanlan would have obtained my e-mail address is corrected. Jon Unglert Wyckoff A brace of bricks of marijuana sent through the mail to a Wyckoff home headed the list of crimes investigated by the Wyckoff Police Department as April drew to a close. On April 18, Wyckoff Detective Sergeant Joseph Soto and Detective Sergeant Michael Musto received notice from the U.S. Postal Inspectors that a shipment of marijuana was expected to be delivered to a Wyckoff home. Surveillance was established, and the inspectors delivered the package. Subsequent investigation reportedly revealed that a 23-year-old Belleville resident had arranged to have the packet mailed to his mother’s house on Franklin Avenue, knowing she would not be home when the packet arrived. The package contained two bricks of marijuana, which weighed 20 ounces and had been purchased for $1,000 in California. The street value in New Jersey is reportedly $3,500. The 23-year-old Belleville man was charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, and possession of marijuana over 50 grams. The complaint has been referred to Bergen County Superior Court, and he has been released on his own recognizance. On April 20, Soto and Musto arrested a 42-year-old Paterson woman accused of stealing from the Marshall’s store at Boulder Run Shopping Center, reportedly after internal surveillance disclosed the thefts. She was charged with theft in the amount of $600, and arrest warrants from Prospect Park were discovered. She was committed top Bergen County Jail in lieu of $5,000 bail. A 26-year-old Haskell man was arrested and charged with theft and fraudulent use of a credit card after he stole a purse containing the credit card from a car in the parking lot of the Hawthorne Gospel Church. The credit card had been used at a Wyckoff service station and a Midland Park supermarket. The man was already in custody of the Hawthorne Police Department charged with crimes in multiple jurisdictions. On April 24, Wyckoff police responded to an activated burglar alarm at a Wyckoff Avenue home and found that patio chairs had been stacked to gain access to a second-floor window. No entry appeared to have been made to the house. The same day, the owner of a plumbing company reported that the lock of a storage trailer had been cut at his lot on Lawlins Road. The items stolen have not yet been determined. J. KOSTER
