Key Points:
- Angie Báez, a JPMorgan Chase executive, returned a Knicks-themed trash can she was seen taking and dumping trash from during the Knicks' championship parade in Manhattan, nearly a week after the incident.
- New York City's Department of Sanitation issued Báez two fines totaling $175 for littering and impeding sanitation operations, which are the maximum allowed for first offenses.
- Following the viral video of the stunt, JPMorgan Chase confirmed Báez is no longer employed by the company, though they declined to provide further details about her departure.
- The NYPD stated it has no complaint report on file related to the incident, and the Department of Sanitation noted the trash dumped was minimal compared to the overall parade cleanup.
- The sanitation department humorously announced the basket's return on social media and mentioned that fans can purchase smaller Knicks-themed litter baskets online.
