Thirty-one-year-old New Yorker Quashon Burton is suspected of
stealing at least four identities so he could receive almost $150,000 in
government loans. The money was meant to help small businesses which were struggling
because of the pandemic. Law enforcement officers went to his home to arrest
him, but Burton was long gone. He was a fugitive for over a year. If you steal
150 grand, what are you gonna do next? Burton went to Walt Disney World. Friday,
October 20, he visited Disney’s Animal Kingdom with members of his family,
under a fake name. By the strangest coincidence, Jeff Andre – the agent who’d
signed his arrest warrant – was also vacationing at the Animal Kingdom that day.
He recognized the distinctive tattoo on Burton’s neck. I guess if you’re going
to run afoul of the law, it’s not a great idea to put tattoos where everyone
can see. And if you’re already wearing conspicuous ink, it’s best to keep your
nose clean.
