Police: Sex-Crazed Fanboy Gropes, Grabs, Chases Male DPW Worker
A DPW worker was on the job in Maywood late last week when a driver pulled up and shouted that he wanted to have sex with him, authorities said. Weird, for sure. But it didn't end there. The driver -- identified as Jose Mauricio CardozaRivera, 46 -- had been accused of grabbing a boy the day before in Little Ferry. The Maywood DPW worker told police on Thursday that CarodozaRivera got out and grabbed him by the arm, trying to pull him into his car. He said he shook loose and retreated to his truck, but CardozaRivera opened the door and climbed in. The worker bolted out the driver's …

Detectives Turn Tables On Scammers Who Thought They'd Conned Bergen County Grandma
GOTCHA! Two gutless 20-year-olds from the Bronx thought they'd conned a Woodcliff Lake woman out of $6,000 with the "grandson in trouble" scam -- only they ended up being the ones who got punked. A caller claiming to be her grandson told the intended victim that he'd been arrested and needed bail money, WCL Police Lt. Chad Malloy said. The caller gave the grandmother the name and number of someone who he said was an attorney. That person would come to her house and collect the $6,000 from her, then bring it to court to secure his release, he told her. Grandma knew better, though. She went …

GOTCHA! A fresh eye cracked the mugging of a woman who got into a fierce broad-daylight struggle with a robber outside an Englewood cafe over a year ago, authorities announced.

: 'Grandson In Trouble' Ringleader Busted, Passaic County Authorities Say

Authorities in Passaic County say they’ve nabbed one – a big one. Raymond Jacquez, 26, led a network of scammers who convinced victims they were a relative who’d been arrested or a lawyer working for that person, Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia M. Valdes said. The victims were urged to wire money to a bank account in Paterson so the relative could post bail, she said. Senior victims in Florida, Maryland, Vermont and Washington…
