Two men got into an argument on Sunday morning that led to a physical altercation with another man after a party at a house on Muir Boulevard. Simon B. Leon-Villa, 30, of Maple Shade, N.J., called police just before 10 a.m. and said a 21-year-old who lives at the house had punched him in the face, causing his nose to bleed. The younger man immediately left, but police found him, highly intoxicated, on Miller Lane West. He denied any involvement in the fight. Police said all the men were drunk and that no one wanted to press charges.  

Police responded to the Citgo gas station on North Main Street on Friday afternoon two days after a customer had allegedly stolen a GearWrench ratchet and socket tool set from Jose Santo’s shop. An officer spoke to the customer, who admitted to taking the tool set, which was said to be worth $185. He said he believed the shop was going to charge him for parts that would not be installed in his 2004 Infiniti. He returned the tool set to Mr. Santo, who declined to press charges. The man is no longer allowed on the property. 

Two credit card accounts were opened in Angelika Weiner’s name without her knowledge or permission and a man she knows was added as a cardholder, according to a report filed by Michele Rothar on behalf of Ms. Weiner.
