Anchor's Son to Get Plea Deal in Purse Snatching Case
/Back in March, FTVLive told you that the son of WNYW Anchor Rosanna Scotto son was busted over the weekend for swiping a Chanel purse at NY bar.
Cops busted Louis Ruggiero after seeing him tuck a purse under his jacket as he was walking out of the bar, law-enforcement sources said.
It now appears Ruggiero is going to be offered a plea deal before heading back to college.
The NY Daily News reports that Ruggiero whose mother is a “Good Day New York” co-host, was in Manhattan Criminal Court where he learned he has yet to be indicted because of the pending offer.
Ruggiero left a Chelsea club with a stolen bag and had a fake ID and small amount of cocaine on him, authorities said.
He is set to return to court in early August.
Details of the plea proposal were not disclosed.
