New Jersey police are on the lookout for a Florida man who placed thousands of dollars worth of fake pizza orders and claimed they were donations for police officers.
According to the New York Post, Sudeep Khetani,34, placed several fraudulent orders at several New Jersey pizza shops from his location in Orlando, Florida. The South Brunswick Police Department said in a statement on multiple occasions when the shops would call Khetani back, he claimed he wished Italians would get infected with the coronavirus.

Police Chief Raymond Hayducka called the situation “incomprehensible” due to Khetani taking advantage of businesses who are currently struggling due to the pandemic:
“Our businesses are all struggling and every dollar matters. I will not tolerate someone trying to take advantage of our community in these difficult days.”
