Private Documents Tossed on Yankees Parade

MYFOXNY.COM - Ticker tape doesn't exist anymore, so folks had to grab other sources of paper to toss on the Yankees World Series victory parade in Lower Manhattan Friday. A lot of the makeshift confetti was created from shredded papers.

But Fox 5 found some paper on the street at the parade that wasn't shredded -- and the documents contained very sensitive private information.

Some of the documents were medical records listing names, addresses, insurance information, medical diagnoses, and other private information. One document was somebody's stock brokerage account, containing financial information.

It could have been a treasure trove of information for identity thieves.

Fox 5 has been attempting to contact the people whose information was found on the documents.
