New York DWI Suspect Impersonates Brother

Man provided his brother’s name in effort to avoid NY drunk driving charge.

Erkan Deniz, of Palenville, tried to escape a misdemeanor charge of driving while intoxicated in New York by giving state police officers the name of his brother. That bit of deception added a felony to the charges.

Erkan Deniz, 23, was stopped Friday around 11:15 pm in the town of Ulster and charged with drunk driving. He provided the arresting officers with the name of his 25 year old brother, Metin Deniz. Police have no confirmed that Metin has not been charged with a crime, as originally reported in the local paper.

Erkan was rearrested Sunday and charged with felony forgery and misdemeanor impersonation.
