Police were only able to reach Fuentes' family to notify them late Monday afternoon, Minda said.
Just two weeks before Fuentes' death, former Paramus Catholic High School football star Mike Devenio was killed in a crash nearby on Route 3 east. The collision injured four others.
The Bergen County Prosecutor's Office, which is investigating the crash that killed Devenio, has not revealed any details on the collision.
