PARK RIDGE, N.J.—A resident presented herself to headquarters the morning of Jan. 22 to report a theft. She explained that on Dec. 11, 2019 a hair client from Franklin Lakes paid for services by check, paying $343.09. When the complainant deposited the check, the account was found to be closed.
She said she tried repeatedly to resolve this with the client but her voice mail was full. She sent a certified letter on Jan. 10 demanding payment but this was ignored.
Franklin Lakes police contacted the suspect’s mother, who said her daughter does not live at her address and that they haven’t seen each other in some time.
“It was found that [the suspect] stole credit cards and money from her mother and she does not speak with her. [The mother] has no clue where her daughter is living,” police said.
The officer reached out to the Danbury Police Department, as the suspect has an address on the bad check out of that jurisdiction. At press time Danbury Police had yet to advise.
