The unpaid summonses included three out of Bergen County, four out of West New York and a whopping 13 out of North Bergen alone.
Jose Ebro I Sajbochol-Otzou, 26, of Kent, WA was stopped by PAPD Officer Frank Franco after his white 1998 Chevy Suburban rolled through the upper level toll plaza around 8:15 a.m., the authority’s Joseph Pentangelo told CLIFFVIEW PILOT.
First, Sajbochol-Otzou handed Franco an expired Washington State driver’s license, Pentangelo said.
Then the officer ran a computer check that turned up the 20 warrants totaling $2,492, he said.
These included one for $300 out of Bergenfield and another for $490 out of West New York, Pentangelo said.
“He paid up, then wanted to get back in his car and leave — but he couldn’t. Not without a driver’s license,” he said. “A family member had to drive it off.”
The warrant breakdown:
Bergenfield: $300
Fairview: $120
Dumont: $89
West New York: (4): $1,140
North Bergen (13): $838*
*Eight of those are for $65 ea.
