A call of a suspicious vehicle brought Saddle River, borough and Washington Township police to Paddock Road near Werimus Road shortly before 1 a.m. Wednesday, March 9, Ho-Ho-Kus Police Capt. Greg McBain said.
Officers found Elijah Augustin, 27, of Ozone Park, Queens sleeping behind the wheel of a 2016 Kia Sorrento reported stolen out of Nassau County on Long Island, he said.
They also found the key fobs, crack, drug paraphernalia -- and active warrants, McBain said.
Augustin, who's been busted for burglary in Bergen County before, was charged with receiving stolen property and drug counts, among other offenses, and then sent to the county jail.
