Officer Kyle Ferreira, who'd been patrolling Franklin Avenue, made the stop on Crescent Avenue for faulty lights just after 1 a.m. Friday, Police Chief David Murphy said.

He ended up arresting 44-year-old Michael C. McDaid on drug-related and weapons counts, as well as contempt of a domestic violence order, after summoning a Bergen County's sheriff's K-9 unit, Murphy said.

McDaid also received a summons for the vehicle lights and was released pending a court hearing, the chief said.
