An unsuspecting good Samaritan picked up a fleeing burglar, drove him to the Hillsdale train station -- and then paid for his ticket, CLIFFVIEW PILOT is reporting.
The bandit's partner wasn't so lucky: A Bergen County Police K9 officer and a Woodcliff Lake detective quickly tracked him down.
Police rushed to the Tice's Corner Marketplace in Woodcliff Lake just after 9 o'clock Friday night. The bandits tried to throw them off by calling in an armed robbery nearby, but that proved fruitless.
