What could this have been?  How many of you would say, “That is none of my business?”   How many of you would call? Great job to the neighbor who took the time to call us.  Our burglaries are down.  It is working.  There are over 15,000 residents in Hoptcong. That is a large amount of eyes and ears for your Police Department. Criminals will know it is dangerous to break the law in Hopatcong.  The community looks out for each other. Great Job!
