HOBOKEN – An allegedly intoxicated 26-year-old man was arrested after allegedly fleeing a scene of a five-vehicle car accident near 525 Bloomfield St. in Hoboken on Saturday, Feb. 27, according to a press release from the Hoboken Police Department.
Daniel Burgos, of North Bergen, was charged with driving while intoxicated, leaving the scene of an accident, reckless driving and driving while intoxicated in a school zone.
Hoboken Police Officers responded to reports of a car accident involving five vehicles in Hoboken around 2:35 a.m., the press release from Hoboken Sgt. Edgardo Cruz said.
“Witnesses advised officers the vehicle had left the scene and described a white BMW and given a license plate number,” the press release says. “It was later found in North Bergen parked outside the registered residence.”
In the press release, Cruz says that at the residence, Burgos’ mother allowed officers inside to speak to her son who “could not remember the incident.” Burgos allegedly failed a sobriety test and was transported to headquarters where he was given four summonses and released to a “responsibly party,” according to the release. – Steven Rodas
