PARSIPPANY — On Friday, July 29 at 10:39 p.m. the Parsippany Police Department’s Communication Desk received a 911 call reporting an armed robbery in progress at The Dairy at Lake Hiawatha, 79 North Beverwyck Road.
Multiple patrol units along with Detective Keiling responded to the scene. The caller advised that a heavy set Indian male, wearing a brown and yellow shirt, with rolled up jeans entered the store and demanded the victims give him the money, while holding a knife. The caller and three other employees immediately fled from behind the counter and hid in the restroom, at which time they called 911.
Upon arrival of Patrol Officer Armenti and Silva they searched the inside of the store and found that the suspect had fled the area.
All four victims were escorted out of the bathroom by the police at which time they stated that they were not injured. Officers on scene also observed damage to multiple ice cream topping canisters that were pushed off of the top of the ice cream coolers and onto the ground by the suspect.
Shortly after Patrol Lt. T. Pomroy and Patrol Officer C. Silva began checking the surrounding area and spoke to citizens that reported a male had fled down the alley of 77 North Beverwyck Road.
The Officers immediately checked the area and found Arjuna Ganesan, 44, Parsippany, crouching down in the recess of a doorway in the alley. Mr. Ganesan’s clothing also matched the description given by the victims.
Mr. Ganesan was placed under arrest at which time three knives were found in his possession, along with a sum of cash that was stolen from the business. He was also positively identified as the person who robbed the store. He was transported back to Parsippany Police Department Headquarters were he was processed and charged with Robbery in the first degree, three counts of Unlawful Possession of a Weapon in the fourth degree, Possession of a Weapon for Unlawful Purposes, Theft of Movable Property, and Criminal Mischief.
Judge Frese set the bail at $20,000. with no 10% option. Mr. Ganesan was then transported to the Morris County Jail in default of his bail.
The Morris County Sheriff’s Department CID also responded to the scene to assist in the investigation.

PARSIPPANY — The Parsippany-Troy Hills Police Department is accepting applications from its residents for enrollment in the 2016 Citizen’s Police Academy.
This ten-week program is designed to give the participants a working knowledge of the police department.
The goal is to increase communication and partnership between residents and the police through education and discussion to establish a safer community.
It consists of a series of sessions held once a week, on Thursdays, 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. starting Thursday, September 22.
The classes provide an in-depth view into various areas of law enforcement such as criminal investigations, neighborhood watch, crime prevention, firearms, use of force and advancements in technology utilized in law enforcement today. The program is an educational and informative program that allows residents the opportunity to learn about the issues that affect law enforcement efforts in Parsippany.
Class size is limited to approximately twenty students and there is no cost to anyone who attends the academy.
When residents take a more personal interest in the protection of their community and neighborhoods, they enjoy a safer and closer relationship with their neighbors.

Graduates of the academy are able to take what they have learned back into their neighborhoods where they can utilize it to enhance the quality of neighborhood life.

PARSIPPANY – Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced that it has closed the sale of an approximately 100,000-square-foot office building located at 600 Parsippany Road in Parsippany. The offices of John Inglesino, Parsippany’s Town Attorney, are located in the building.
Interior of 600 Parsippany Road
HFF marketed the property on behalf of the seller, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation. A joint venture between Bukiet Building Management and Mountain Development Corp. purchased the asset free and clear of existing debt.
600 Parsippany Road is situated just off exit 40 of Interstate 287 at the four-way interchange with Parsippany Road. The property is less than two miles from Interstates 80 and 280 and Routes 24, 46, 10 and 202, and less than 30 miles from New York City. The three-story, black glass building is 92 percent leased to notable tenants, including Inglesino, Webster, Wyciskala & Taylor, LLC; Aerotek; Level 3 Communications; Sonneborn; Certified Financial Services; Property Title Group, LLC and Dewberry. The building features a newly-renovated lobby with stone and tile flooring and a full-service café on the top floor.
The HFF investment sales team representing the seller was led by senior managing director Jose Cruz, managing director Kevin O’Hearn, directors Michael Oliver and Stephen Simonelli and associate director Marc Duval.
“600 Parsippany road is a quality asset located within the prime Morris County office market,” Cruz said. “The property provides the new owners with stable cash flow given its current occupancy and the potential upside given leasing the remaining space at higher rents.”
