Officers Liz Zimmerman and Anthony Lacher responded to Bottle King after being called by employees at the Washington Avenue store.

As they spoke with both men, one of them tried using a Pennsylvania driver’s license and several credit cards as identification. All were phony, Officer William Diedtrich said.

Jose Zamora Marte (above, left) and Geovanny Florimon (right), both 34, also had alcohol that they bought from another store with one of the bogus credit cards in their car, Diedtrich said.

Florimon was released on $10,000 bail and Zamora Marte on $2,500 bail Sunday night from the Bergen County Jail.

Florimon is charged with credit card theft, criminal simulation, fraudulent use of a credit card and possession of a fraudulent license. Zamora Marte is charged with fraudulent use of a credit card.

Both have initial Municipal Court appearances coming up.
