More arrests in NYPD, FDNY disabilty fraud scheme

Eyewitness News
NEW YORK (WABC) -- Dozens of additional suspects are expected to be in court Tuesday in the second wave of arrests related to a massive disability fraud scheme involving retired police officers and firefighters.

At least 28 more arrests are expected on top of the more than 100 back in January.

The new suspects are expected to be arrested or surrender to the Manhattan District Attorney.

Prosecutors made the initial arrests on January 7, taking 106 into custody in the $21.5 million scam.
