The citizen went straight to one of the officers on duty. It was "just a matter of minutes," the chief said, before Officer Anthony Bachmann and Sgt. Scott Ahearn seized the boy …

The quartet had just struck at the Interstate Shopping Center off Route 17 on Thursday when Maywood Detective Sgt. William Phayre headed to the Ulta store at Bergen Town Cente…
