There are 8 million ways to make money illegally in the Naked City

A Dorchester man was indicted today on charges he ran an illegal car-rental agency.

The state Attorney General's office reports that George Quinn, 70, was charged with 13 counts of insurance fraud and four counts of larceny over $250. Oh, and for good measure: four counts each of illegal possession of a firearm and illegal possession of ammunition.

The state charges that Quinn told Amica Insurance he was just a car collector when he applied for multiple insurance policies. In fact, the state alleges:

Investigators from both the Attorney General's Office and the Boston Police Department discovered that on various dates between February 2008 through November 2008, Quinn allegedly illegally rented his vehicles, many times to drivers who were unlicensed. Investigators discovered that during this time period the rented vehicles were involved in numerous motor vehicle accidents that resulted in property damage and sometimes personal injury.

Innocent, etc.
