New Square man charged with obstructing governmental administration in stabbing fight at New Square home
Ramapo police this morning released the identity of a man at the center of a dispute last night over an investigation of a possible stabbing.
Yehuda Unger, 30, of 19 Bush Lane, New Square, was charged with obstructing governmental administration, a misdemeanor, after police said he tried to prevent officers from investigating a report of a stabbing.
Police were called to a a residence on Washington Avenue in New Square about 3:40 p.m. yesterday on a report of a fight in the home and a man with a knife. When officers arrived, they were attempting to get into the home to check out the story when a man later identified as Unger walked up to them.
Police said Unger did not follow their orders to get out of the way and tried to prevent them from getting into the house.
Police then handcuffed Unger and put him in a police cruiser.
Police said a crowd had gathered by that time and surrounded the police car, protesting Unger's arrest.
A group of more than a dozen men from New Square then arrived at Ramapo police headquarters to post Unger's bail, according to police.
Crowd control assistance was requested from the Rockland Sheriff's department and Spring Valley police.
The crowd dispersed.
Unger was processed and released on bail. He was told to return Jan. 16 to New Square village court.
