“At the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Anthony Burges preyed on business owners by falsely promising to help them manage costs or reduce their payments on existing debt,” said District Attorney Bragg. “Small businesses from across New York City and the country were forced to close, reduce capacity, or declare bankruptcy as a result of this heartless scheme.

A New Jersey man was indicted for fleeing an Inwood car crash that injured 20 people in January, the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office announced Wednesday. Jonathan Valentin, a 26-year-old from Maywood, was allegedly driving with a revoked license when he caused the devastating crash. While pulling out of a gas station, Valentin slammed into an Uber car on Broadway just north of 204th Street around 9 p.m. on Jan. 2, according to officials. The impact sent the Uber careening into a crowded restaurant, injuring 20 people, authorities said. Among the victims were an 11-year-old girl who needed her leg amputated due to her injuries and an one-year-old baby who suffered a broken foot.
