Officer Matthew Ford pulled over a Honda Odyssey on Rt. 3 around 11 a.m. Thursday when Ford noticed a brake light out, the department said.
A check for active warrants revealed that a passenger, Jordy Javier-Laureano, 39, was wanted in his hometown for sexual assault of a child.
Javier-Laureano was taken into custody and was being held in the Hudson County jail pending extradition to Wisconsin. The driver was issued motor-vehicle summonses and released.
Anyone with any additional information is asked to contact the Secaucus Police Department at (201) 330-2060 or at detectivedivision@secaucus.net. All calls can be kept confidential.
