FBI Arrests New York Man For Hoarding Enough Medical Supplies ‘To Outfit An Entire Hospital,’ Report Says

Federal law enforcement officials arrested a New York man this week for allegedly hoarding enough medical supplies to “outfit an entire hospital” as the U.S. faces a pandemic from the coronavirus, which originated in China.

The Department of Justice announced on Monday that the FBI arrested Baruch Feldheim, 43, “for allegedly coughing on FBI agents while claiming to have COVID-19, and with lying to them about his accumulation and sale of surgical masks, medical gowns, and other medical supplies.”
