Orangetown Police say they initiated a traffic stop in the Village of Nyack after observing the driver of a white 2013 BMW commit a traffic violation on Thursday, March 28 around 2:45 p.m.

During the stop, police say the driver allegedly provided a false name and identity.

Upon further investigation, the operator was identified as 38-year-old Jeffrey Jeune of the Town of Woodbury in Orange County. Police discovered official supporting documents in the vehicle that contradicted the false identity Jeune originally provided.

A check with the DMV also revealed that Jeune was driving with a suspended license, police say.

Jeune was arrested and transported to Orangetown Police Headquarters, where he was charged with:

  • Second-degree criminal impersonation, a misdemeanor
  • Third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation, a misdemeanor

Jeune was released on bail and is scheduled to return to Nyack Justice Court on April 30.
