Week in Review: Authorities Investigate Possible Homicide, Garwood Fisherman Statue Reappears, Clark Police Car Accident

According to unconfirmed reports, the body of an elderly woman was found in her home Saturday evening. The incident was reported just before 9 p.m. on Saturday, July 7. John Holl, a spokesman for the Union County Prosecutor's Office, said late Saturday evening that the UCPO is conducting an investigation into the incident, which will include an autopsy to determine the cause of death. The death has not yet been ruled a homicide and investigators are working to gather more details.

According to police on scene, officer Omer Olmeda was heading away from the Clark Pool on Oak Ridge with his lights and sirens on to respond to a call. The light was red as the officer approached the intersection and the woman headed through the green light towards Scotch Plains on Lake and T-boned the police car, according to police.

Nicholas's mom Linda said the he loves lawn statues and was distraught after the fisherman went missing. Nicholas's dad captured his son's reaction and uploaded it to YouTube. Sometime this week, the statue was returned. The fisherman has been a resident of 409 West Street since before the property's current owners, Denise and Anthony Ridente, lived there. "We've been in Garwood for 17 years and he was there before the people who we bought the house from," Denise Ridente told Patch. "It's a mystery where he came from. Lots of neighborhood kids have always gravitated to him."

you'd be hard-pressed to look around it and find anything new. The clothes, shoes, bags and jewelry are secondhand (from Old Navy and Target to BCBG and Armani), the space is a former garage that was a former gas station, the walls are original or reused materials from the renovation, a big old armoire she found on the curb serves as shelving, and even the doors and windows are Craiglist finds. "It's this whole annoyance of waste," says Caminos. "I'd look at something and think, why would you throw that away?" Prices at Progress range from $5 to $150 at the highest, clothes are washed or steamed before they hit the racks, and the shop offers women's, teen's and men's clothing. Customers can bring in unwanted, new or gently used clothes and receive a percentage of what Caminos will sell them for – either 40 percent of her prices in store credit or 20 percent cash on the spot.
