Man ticketed for tying child to motorcycle

Twine was tied around the boy's feet, waist

Police have ticketed a man for securing a 5-year-old to his motorcycle with twine.

Police say the twine was tied around the boy's feet and waist so that he wouldn't fall off the bike.

Police also say the boy's helmet was too big for his head.

Albanese was also ticketed on Monday for driving with a suspended license.

Police tell the Asbury Park New Jersey Press newspaper that the boy's mother gave her permission to let 53-year-old Frank Albanese of New York take the boy on his bike to Staten Island.
