A former FBI agent is facing federal charges after he allegedly hit a pedestrian with his government-issued vehicle, left the victim on a bench and then lied about the incident, which left a man severely injured, prosecutors said.

Andrew Reyes, 30, was arrested the morning of Nov. 5 and charged with violating the man's civil rights as an FBI agent by moving him and driving off without getting help, according to an indictment filed in the Eastern District of New York.
