Driver Arrested for Untaxed Cigarettes

Genesee County Sheriff's Deputies stopped a Rochester man who was driving erratically and charged him with transporting more than 15,000 untaxed Kiss cigarettes. Deputies arrested Nedal Abdul Mansour, 48, in the Town of Pembroke. They found 15,560 untaxed cigarettes in his vehicle. Lawmen believe he was trying to transport them across Indian reservation lines. Mansour faces one felony count of possessing and transporting over 10,000 untaxed cigarettes. Those cigarettes cannot be legally removed en masse from a reservation or re-sold elsewhere. Deputies say Abdul was also driving with a revoked license. He was given an appearance ticket.
