(222217) Arrests: 11/25/16 at 5:34 AM – Zone 5 Police Station parking lot (Highland Park): Zone 5 officers Connors and Macioce were returning to the police station when they saw a vehicle traveling on Washington Blvd with two flat tires. The vehicle was in the left turn lane to go up Highland Drive, but abruptly cut-off traffic and turned right, into the police station parking lot. Officers Connors and Macioce pulled into the police station and conducted a traffic stop on the vehicle. The front passenger, Brendon Redden, 18, of East Hills, had marijuana residue all over the front of his clothing. The rear passenger, Aziz Porter, 18, of East Hills, had marijuana in plain view as well. All three occupants exited the vehicle, at which point officers found (21) stamp bags of heroin under Redden's seat, a large bag of marijuana, and a small bag of marijuana. Redden was arrested on site since he was charged with a felony. Officers intended to summons Porter to court since he was charged with a misdemeanor, however, he refused to leave the scene after being released from custody. He physically blocked the tow truck driver from towing the vehicle and he was belligerent with officers... so he went to jail too.
