At least 15 tickets were issued to Battiloro, of Garwood, municipal court records indicate.

The citations include leaving the scene of an accident, reckless driving and speeding, as well as driving without a license, registration or insurance card, the outlet reported.

Battiloro was charged with two counts of first-degree murder, but the case is currently in juvenile court and the Union County Prosecutor’s Office has yet to officially name the alleged driver.

The 17-year-old was arrested in connection to the death of the teens in Cranford.

Neighbors also told The Post Thursday that Battiloro was the alleged motorist who killed 17-year-olds Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas as they rode an electric bike.

Loved ones have claimed that the alleged driver was stalking Maria leading up to the heinous crime.

The Post knocked on the house of Battiloro’s family Thursday, but no one answered.

The prosecutor’s office said Thursday morning the suspect was in custody.
