16-331. THE PEOPLE, app, v. ANTHONY WILLIAMS, def-res — Order (Armando Montano, J.), dated January 29, 2016, reversed, on the law, motion denied, information reinstated and matter remitted to Criminal Court for further proceedings.

Defendant was charged with falsely reporting an incident in the third degree (see Penal Law §§240.50[1],[2],[3][a]) and criminal impersonation in the second degree (see Penal Law §190.25[3]), upon allegations that he made four 911 calls, falsely identifying himself as a police “Sergeant Johnson” or “Sergeant Williams”; that he was “in need of assistance” because he was “punched in the face,” “chas[ing] [a] suspect” or heard “shots fired”; that the deponent police officer responded to each call and “upon investigation,” determined that said incidents did not occur; and that defendant admitted to the officer “I made the calls. I’ve done it before.”
