7:10 PM – Members of the Glen Rock and Ridgewood Police Departments responded to a reported home invasion in progress on Sycamore Terrace.  The 9-1-1 call was terminated and the operator was unable to reestablish contact.  Upon securing the scene it was determined that there was no home invasion.  A family member had shown up at the house to visit which upset the caller.  During the response to this incident one Glen Rock Police Officer suffered minor injuries when he slipped and fell on snow and ice which had accumulated on the resident’s un-shoveled driveway.  The matter of the unexpected guest was resolved between family members after it was determined that no criminal act had ever occurred and that police involvement was not warranted.
