A Harrisburg auto dealership owner faces 144 criminal charges after Pennsylvania State Police uncovered alleged fraudulent vehicle sale practices at Yeni Auto Sales. Khaled Yaye, 49, stands accused of improperly handling, reassigning, and processing vehicle titles, among other deceptive practices at the South Cameron Street dealership.

State Police launched the investigation into Yaye's business operations, leading to the extensive list of violations under the Pennsylvania Vehicle Code. The charges suggest systematic issues with title documentation and vehicle sales procedures at the dealership. Yeni Auto Sales operated as a used car business in Harrisburg's south end before the investigation.

The case highlights ongoing enforcement efforts against automotive fraud in Pennsylvania. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for March 10, where prosecutors will present evidence supporting the 144 charges. The outcome could have significant implications for the dealership's future operations and Yaye's business standing in the local automotive market.
