Around 12:04 AM on May 3, 2026, Officers Francesco Venezia and Ariella Molina with the West New York Police Department observed a grey 2023 BMW swerving multiple times in the vicinity of 60th Street and Boulevard East. They eventually activated their emergency lights to initiate a traffic stop, and the driver pulled over in front of 5303 Boulevard East. The driver was identified as 24-year-old Ahileen Reynoso, and the system indicated that her license was currently suspended. As they were speaking with her, they noticed that she was having difficulty locating her documents and they also detected the odor of alcohol. Ahileen told the officers that she was coming from a party and heading back home. She admitted to consuming alcohol earlier that evening. Based on their suspicion of impairment, Ahileen was asked to exit the vehicle and perform field sobriety exercises after Officer Armando Schipkowski arrived on scene to administer them. Her poor performance on the field sobriety exercises confirmed the officers’ suspicion of impairment. She claimed that she was not aware of her license suspension, but body worn camera footage from an earlier traffic stop in Wallington, New Jersey on March 25, 2026 would serve to disprove her claim. Based on the odor of alcohol, her admission to consuming alcohol earlier that evening, and her inability to satisfactorily perform the field sobriety exercises, Ahileen was placed under arrest for driving under the influence. Since her friends arrived on scene, the officers allowed them to take possession of her vehicle instead of towing it under John’s Law. Ahileen was transported to the West New York Police Department for further processing. At the station, the Standard Statement for Motor Vehicle Operators was read to Ahileen, and she agreed to submit breath samples. Her Alcotest results indicated a BAC level of 0.177%, which was more than double the legal limit of 0.08%. After they finished processing Ahileen, she was eventually released to her boyfriend pending her court appearance after he signed the Potential Liability Warning form on Ahileen’s behalf. Ahileen was issued the following citations: -Operating under the influence (39:4-50) -Driving with a suspended license (39:3-40) As of September 22, 2026, Ahileen’s case is still pending before the West New York Municipal Court. Ahileen has previously been cited for use of hand-held wireless telephones (39:4-97.3) and driving with a suspended license (39:3-40) in Wallington, New Jersey on March 25, 2026. ---------------------------------------------- Please LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and consider supporting this channel (email us for more information).
