A New York Uber driver was charged with kidnapping after picking up a 15-year-old girl from a Sweet 16 party and allegedly trying to bring her to his Brooklyn home, prosecutors said.
Sean Williams, 32, was arraigned Tuesday and charged for the July incident where he picked the minor up around 11:15 pm on Long Island and attempted to convince her to drink with him, according to the Nassau County District Attorney’s office.
Authorities say the young girl convinced Williams she had to go to the bathroom, ran into a McDonald’s and called the police. Four days later, the driver was arrested outside his Brooklyn home. In a statement to NBC News, William’s attorney, Steven Galtman, said, “Several factors lend itself to contrast the alleged kidnapping.”
