While performing motor patrol in the area of Forest Avenue, Officer T. Solimando effectuated a motor vehicle stop for multiple traffic infractions. During the course of the roadside investigation, Officer Solimando determined that the driver had presented a fictitious insurance card and confirmed that the vehicle was uninsured. The 30-year-old male from Bronx, NY, was placed under arrest, charged on complaint summons for exhibiting a fraudulent motor vehicle insurance card (4th Deg.) and was ultimately released on his own recognizance pending a new court appearance date.
