Heping Lin, 50, was charging customers $5 per disc when police grabbed him at a Broadway tavern , Sgt. Brian Metzler told CLIFFVIEW PILOT.

They seized the bootlegs and $517 in cash, he said.

Lin was being held on $15,000 bail in the Bergen County Jail, charged with possession with the intent to sell bootlegged video and possession of criminal proceeds.

ICE issued an immigration detainer on him, as well.
