Cement head dumped tons of concrete in fire-ravaged Long Island pine barrens - and now he's facing hard time: cops
Briefly

Joao Abreu, owner of Chase Construction Enterprises, is charged with felony criminal mischief after illegally dumping 24 tons of concrete in Suffolk County's pine barrens. Abreu's truck faced multiple safety violations, and he lacked a valid commercial driving license, with 27 suspensions listed. This case highlights ongoing issues of illegal dumping in Suffolk County, as evidenced by another arrest for waste disposal. Local officials stress the importance of environmental protection and the repercussions for those who engage in such activities.
Our environment is precious. These types of crimes cannot and will not be tolerated, and law enforcement will find and arrest anybody who dares to illegally dispose of any waste in Suffolk County.
Both individuals could have disposed of their waste legally - but they chose not to. Illegal dumping is lazy and harmful to our Island's environment and taxpayers' wallets.
