Frank Carone, 56, had his home searched by the feds in the early morning operation and was arrested in an alleged bribery scheme that also involved his brother Anthony Carone, 54, according to police sources.

McCarthy has been placed on modified duty, according to the NYPD.
Carone was hit with a 13-count indictment unsealed Wednesday alleging that while he was serving as Adams’ chief of staff in 2022 he received $120,000 in bribes funneled through his brother’s law firm that he used to pay off his credit cards.
Frank received 12 monthly $10,000 payments from Yan Po “Andy” Zhu, who owned Microtel Inn by Wyndham in Long Island City, and from Zhu’s business manager Crysten Chen after he helped the hotel clinch a $6.825 million one-year contract to run a migrant shelter at their establishment, the court papers allege.
