• Secaucus Police Blotter, Sept. 7 - Sept. 13 (patch.com) — Two North Bergen residents were among those arrested in last week's Secaucus police activity, including one for hindering apprehension during a traffic stop and another for alleged drunk driving after a crash. The blotter details several additional shoplifting and warrant arrests, and reminds readers that all charges are accusations and defendants are presumed innocent.
   

• A New Jersey law could threaten the future of electronic shelf labels (retailbrew.com) — A new state law limiting electronic shelf labels is being tested in practice at the Walmart Supercenter in North Bergen, where managers say the digital tags can only lower prices, not raise them. Supporters and critics statewide are battling over whether this technology protects shoppers or enables price manipulation, and the outcome could shape how North Bergen's big-box stores set prices.
