August 20, 2014 THE VILLADOM TIMES I • Page 17 Wyckoff Police Department Report The Wyckoff Police Department has arrested a 34-year-old Hawthorne man on a number of charges after an Aug. 10 traffic stop led to a $20,000 bail stipulation. At 11:55 p.m., Patrolman Kyle Ferreira pulled the man over for driving on Route 208 with the high beams constantly on and asked for the man’s license. The driver said he had no license on his person, and gave information that turned out to be a false identification -- and related to his own brother. After the police learned his actual name through a computer check, they found his license had been suspended and that he was wanted in Mahwah on an active arrest warrant. He was also found to be in posses- sion of a small amount of narcotic pills. The man was charged with driving while his license was suspended, providing false information, possession of Oxyco- done, possession of Alazapram, possession of narcotics paraphernalia, failure to have inspection of a motor vehicle, and improper use of high beams. His bail was set at $20,000 and he made bail through a bonds- man and is scheduled for a court appear- ance on Sept. 4.
