Robert Clair, 26, already was wanted on charges of fleeing, eluding and crack possession when officers spotted him sitting in a car parked in the family driveway on Hamilton Road along with his brother, Chris Clair, 22, and Abagail Cruz, 19, of Reading, Pa. All three quickly hopped out and scattered, said Teaneck Detective Capt. Dean B. Kazinci.

Detectives Ronald Boswell grabbed both Christopher Clair and Cruz while Detective Seth Kriegel went after Robert Clair (far left), who scaled several fences and vanished, Kazinci said.

Inside the car were three bags of pot and a bag with several Ecstasy pills, the captain said.

Christopher Clair is being held on $100,000 bail and Cruz on $5,000 bail in the Bergen County Jail.
