Cardboard license plate leads to man's arrest

LAKEHURST — A 26-year-old Asbury Park man was arrested Saturday night after police learned the Pennsylvania license plate on his car was a cardboard fake, authorities said.

The Mitsubishi Gallant driven by Armando A. Alfaro-Hernandez was pulled over at 7:45 p.m. after Officer Michael Rodriguez ran the car's license plates through a mobile data terminal in his police cruiser and learned the car was unregistered.

During a roadside investigation, Alfaro-Hernandez admitted being an unlicensed driver, Sgt. Ronald Heinzman said. Later, Rodriguez removed a plastic cover from the car's license plate and found the tag to be a color photocopy of an actual license plate.

"It looks exactly like a real plate, and it was under this clear plastic lens," Heinzman said. "It was just a flimsy piece of cardboard — a knockoff."

Alfaro-Hernandez was charged with third-degree fraud for possessing a stolen document and hindering his apprehension for initially providing police with a false name, police said. Heinzman said police found multiple motor-vehicle summonses in the car issued under different names and later learned Alfaro-Hernandez was wanted on a $339 warrant issued by the Allenhurst Municipal Court.

The driver was also issued motor-vehicle summonses for being an unlicensed driver, having an uninsured vehicle and an unregistered vehicle, and possessing a fraudulent identification card, police said. He was transferred to Ocean County Jail in Toms River, where he was being held Saturday in lieu of $2,500 bail.

The federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement was later notified because Alfaro-Hernandez is an undocumented alien. ICE is expected to place a no-bail detainer on Alfaro-Hernandez, Heinzman said.

Heinzman and Special Officer Jennifer Emer assisted Rodriguez at the scene.

Fake name, fake drivers license, fake SSN and fake license plate, wonder if he will pay the court with monopoly money and then be released. :x

These illegal aliens use fake everything. It's amazing that he's had all these warrants, yet was still running around free in this country.

I bet this guy goes up for a long time. Then deported. They'll have his fingerprints, his picture, his DNA. It's over for this guy. LOL

Printing this one for our police chief. LOL

:lol: LOL. Just when I thought I'd heard it all. This is way too funny! Hahah.

You would think that your government would eventually get sick and tired of being made fools of by these illegal invaders! Invaders don't respect this country, our laws, or our people. Doesn't any of our elected officials have a backbone or an ounce of integretry left (if they ever had it to begin with).

I'm actually starting to feel embarrased for our government because they obviously are incapable of recognizing when they are being taken advantage of...

Not only did police find that the license plate was a fake but they thought the drivers license looked a little fishy as well. :P

That's an old one bulldogger. LOL

As far as integrity goes for our leaders. You must be kidding. They are the own best interest group. They don't care about us only what they can get out of it.
