Page 6 THE VILLADOM TIMES I • February 19, 2014 Area Family dispute results in weapons charges At approximately 5:30 p.m. on Feb. 11, a Ramsey resident came to Mahwah Police Headquarters to report an incident that occurred earlier in the day with his nephew, a 25-year- old Wyckoff resident. The original incident occurred at a property in North Haledon where the Wyckoff man is renovating house. A verbal and violent physical altercation Pool may get refreshment stand back The Waldwick Council will try again to get a vendor to run the snack bar at the Waldwick Pool this summer and last week approved putting the job out for public bid. “People saw in the newspaper that we had no one last year, so now we have three or four companies that have expressed an interest in bidding,” said Borough Adminis- trator Gary Kratz. As to why not continue with the vending machines, Kratz said, “We want to provide a more varied service and good food at a reasonable price.” Last summer, the lone bidder to run the concession stand pulled out in late May due to staffing problems, too late to find a replacement before the pool opened on Memorial Day. To fill the gap at that time, Kratz recommended get- ting vending machines to provide minimal refreshments: soft drinks, juice, water, snacks, ice cream, and some candy. The machines were installed on the concrete patio adjacent to the refreshment stand, with a fixed patio cover for protection. The cover will benefit patrons waiting to get served at the stand if it opens this year. Kratz said the borough realized about $1,000 from the vending machine concession, which cost the borough nothing. The operator installed, stocked, and serviced the machines, and the borough received a commission on sales. “The residents were pleased with the vending machine arrangement, but they prefer a concessionaire,” commented Assistant Borough Administrator Andrew Tatarenko. ensued that resulted in minor injuries to the victim. Before the incident escalated, the uncle left and drove to his broth- er’s business in Mahwah. While at the Mahwah location, the Wyckoff man drove up in his vehicle and continued arguing with his uncle. At some point during the argument, the Wyckoff man shouted profanities and lifted up his sweatshirt, exposing a Glock handgun that was tucked in his waistband. The Wyckoff man threatened to shoot his uncle and his entire family. The verbal argument ensued until the nephew drove off in his truck. The Wyckoff Police were contacted after it was learned that the nephew resided there with his fiancé. Mahwah officers under the supervision of Lieutenant Philip Tangel and Sergeant Michael Blondin responded to the man’s resi- dence with the assistance of the Wyckoff Police. The man was home at the time and claimed that he had first been assaulted by his uncle, but admitted to having handguns and rifles in his residence. A handgun (Glock 40 calibre) was located and seized as evidence. The arresting officer was Mahwah Patrol Officer Travis Canning. The Wyckoff man was placed under arrest and trans- ported to Mahwah Police Headquarters where he was charged with one count of terroristic threats, one count of possession of a weapon, and one count of possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes. Bail was set by Superior Court Judge Melchionne at $50,000 no 10 percent and the Wyckoff man was remanded to the Bergen County Jail in lieu of bail.
