A Bay Shore man and two accomplices have been arrested and charged with defrauding a Minnesota insurance company of $37,000 in commissions, police said Friday.
Peter Ezagui, 25, of Monroe Avenue, was charged with second-degree insurance fraud and second-degree grand larceny, detectives said.
Two accomplices Kevin Huhn, 26, of Shelly Place, East Meadow, and James Connolly, 29, of Bayview Avenue, Bayville, were both charged with third-degree grand larceny and falsifying business records.
Police said Hugh and Connolly purchased a total of $1.7 million in insurance through Ezagui, who posed as an insurance agent with the Allianz insurance company of Minneapolis from January 2006 to September 2008.
All their checks for the insurance contracts bounced, detectives said, but not before Ezagui collected his $37,000 in commission for the sales.
