LINDEN — Two New York men were arrested after an off-duty city police officer saw them steal a package from outside a local home, according to Linden Police. On Wednesday around 2:10 p.m., the officer saw two men pick up a package from the porch of a home on the 1700 block of Dill Avenue. The officer knows the home owner and did not recognize the men as from the area — so followed them as they walked away while calling Linden dispatch for assistance. The men eventually split up, as one dropped the package in some nearby bushes.
