New York – from www.nydailynews.com – A security expert demanded a big payday from a boss of Queens storage center when the camera system he put in caught the exec with hookers, prosecutors say.

Solomon Pollac, 59, of Brooklyn, was arrested for attempting to extort $3 million from an unnamed official at Gibraltar Self Storage.

Prosecutors say Pollac threatened to put images of the man having sex with various prostitutes on the Internet.

Pollac, 59, was arrested Wednesday after the storage center man went to the Queens district attorney’s office, which set up a sting. Pollac was nabbed at the Jamaica Ave. facility after the boss handed him a bag of cash.

Detectives from the NYPD waiting in another room moved in and arrested Pollac before he could take off with the loot.

A search of computer equipment at Pollac’s Pearson St. home in Mill Basin turned up numerous flash and memory drives that included the illicit images, they say.

Pollac was held on a $50,000 bond following an arraignment late yesterday in Queens Supreme Court. His lawyer, Scott Dufault, says Pollac was hired to install cams at the business several years ago.

He urged a judge to reduce the bond for a man with no criminal record and a wife who’s dying from cancer.

“That’s a little excessive, Judge,” Dufault said.

The judge refused.
