HUDSON — A Hudson man was arrested by two different police agencies this past week for allegedly stealing a car in Livingston and abandoning it, after it got stuck in the mud, in Hudson.
Christopher C. Barratt, 20, was charged with fourth-degree criminal possession of stolen property by the Hudson Police Department and burglary and grand larceny by the New York State Police, Friday and Wednesday respectively, for allegedly stealing a 1998 Toyota Camry from Parkway Auto Exchange in Livingston.
“He evidently broke into the building, stole the key and then stole the vehicle,” said Sr. Investigator Gary Mazzacano of the State Police.
According to the Hudson Police Department, the car was found without license plates, stuck in the mud on Dugway Road, on the bike path that goes from Harry Howard Avenue to Mill Street in Hudson.
Both HPD and the NYS Police worked on the case.
“The State Police worked on their end,” said HPD Lt. Richard Paolino, “and we worked our end. We were all taking care of business.”
Barratt was arraigned in Livingston Town Court before Judge Robert Moore on the State Police charges and remanded to the Columbia County Jail on $5,000 cash or $10,000 bail bond. He was also arraigned in Hudson City Court before Judge Richard Koweek.
