CA Man Accused Of Possessing Fake IDs

A man from California was accused of possessing fake identifications after a traffic stop on the Seacoast, state police said last week.

Around 9:30 p.m. on Oct. 20, a Chevrolet Malibu was stopped on Interstate 95 in Portsmouth after the driver was clocked at 98 mph in a 65 zone. The driver, Gongping Cheng, 39, of Monterey Park, California, was accused of failing to stop in Hampton Falls. But after spike strips were laid out, one of the tires of the car deflated near Exit 3.

After a brief struggle, Cheng was taken into custody. State police accused him of possessing several driver’s licenses, from different states, with numerous false identities. Cheng was charged with four counts of felony forgery, 16 counts of driver’s license prohibitions, disobeying an officer, reckless conduct, resisting arrest or detention, and reckless operation.
