DOB inspectors to be arrested

At least six city building inspectors were videotaped taking bribes at construction sites, and some were taped dealing cocaine and prescription drugs on the job, the New York Post reported. The building inspectors will be nabbed later this month, sources told the Post, as part of the arrest of about two dozen members and associates of the Luchese crime family. The Department of Buildings inspectors allegedly took bribes of $50 or $100 to ignore violations at construction sites or expedite building permits.
