David Arcuri, age 30,
of Walden, New York, pled guilty to the felony of Leaving the Scene of a
Personal Injury Accident, today in Ulster County Court. The case stems from an incident on April 25th,
2015 at 3:30 a.m. when Arcuri hit a female SUNY New Paltz student with his
vehicle. Arcuri then left the scene of
the accident, and attempted to cover up the incident by taking his car to a
repair shop and telling his insurance company he hit a deer. Arcuri is due to be sentenced on July 6, 2017
and faces up to 1-3 years in state prison. The case was prosecuted by Assistant District
Attorneys Paul Derohannesian and Michael Kavanagh. The defendant was represented by attorney Paul
Gruner.
