Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg has surrendered to authorities ahead of expected charges against him and former US president Donald Trump’s company, according to multiple news outlets.

Weisselberg was seen walking into the courthouse in lower Manhattan around 6:20 a.m. with his lawyer.

New York prosecutors are expected to announce the first criminal indictment today in a two-year investigation into Trump’s business practices, accusing his namesake company and Weisselberg of tax crimes related to fringe benefits for employees.
