Worker Gets 2 Tickets for Making a Mess on Port Chester Sidewalk

A worker cleaning kitchen equipment on the sidewalk and street in downtown Port Chester was cited with two violations for the mess he was making, according to Port Chester Police.

Port Chester Police Officer Tom Krempa, on bicycle patrol on North Main Street, at about 2:15 p.m. Tuesday spotted an employee of Allstate Exhaust of the Bronx working in front of 132 N. Main St. Police said the worker was using cleaning solutions that were spilling onto the sidewalk and into the street.

Police said the worker was uncooperative when he was asked for identification and was told repeatedly that he had to clean up the mess that had been created.

The worker, a 21-year-old Bronx man, was taken to police headquarters and he was issued two tickets, for littering and for working on the sidewalk without a permit.
