An NYPD undercover detective is among the latest to be arrested for alleged involvement in the recent biker gang attack on an SUV, CBS reported Tuesday.
Wojciech Braszczok turned himself in to face riot and criminal mischief charges, according to the Associated Press.
The officer, who came forward four days after the bizarre altercation where motorcyclists attacked a family, allegedly made false statements about his role in the incident. He may be charged with criminal mischief for allegedly banging on and breaking the rear window of the SUV.
Police also arrested Clint Caldwell on Tuesday on gang assault and other charges.
Tuesday's arrests bring the total to six people linked to the gang attack on a black Range Rover, which left driver Alexian Lien beaten and in need of stitches.
Kevin Bresloff, who took a video of the incident that went viral, finally came forward this week with details about the attack in Washington Heights.
Bresloff turned on his helmet camera shortly after the riders encountered the black Range Rover, his lawyer, Andrew Vecere, told CBS.
"From speaking to him, what he saw--or what he believes that he saw--was a water bottle come out of the sunroof of the car," Vecere said.
When asked if he is referring to the SUV and if someone threw the water bottle, Vecere said, "Yes, correct," according to the CBS report.
Bresloff's video recorded the strange incident where a gang of motorcyclists stopped a black SUV on the West Side Highway, then chased the driver after he ran over a biker while trying to escape.
But the recording cuts off before the bikers' attack on the vehicle in a Washington Heights neighborhood, where they pulled Lien from the car and beat him.
Vecere said he and his client "categorically deny that he in any way tampered with the video."
"It's a shame. But that's when it died," he told CBS. "The battery just stopped working; there's not more footage."
Bresloff is considered a witness and does not expect to face any charges. His video was also not the only one recorded since the chain of events was captured on surveillance cameras, highway cameras, and the cell phones and iPads of other bystanders.
