Kortright Woman Arrested for Alleged Suspended Registration

DAVENPORT — Sheriff Craig S. DuMond announced the arrest of a Town of Kortright resident following a traffic stop in the Town of Davenport.

On the afternoon of September 16th, a Sheriff’s Deputy was on patrol in the Town of Davenport when the Deputy’s license plate reader on the patrol vehicle alerted to a suspended registration on a vehicle that passed the Deputy.  A traffic stop was conducted on the vehicle, and the driver was identified as 20-year-old female, Alexis K. McNamara, of Kortright.  Upon conducting a DMV check of the vehicle and McNamara’s driver’s license, it was found that both the vehicle and McNamara’s driving privileges in New York State were suspended for an Insurance Lapse and Failing to Answer a Summons in the Town of Oneonta, Otsego County.  

McNamara was subsequently arrested and charged with Operating a Motor Vehicle while Registration is Suspended and Aggravated Unlicensed Operator of a Motor Vehicle in the Third Degree, both unclassified misdemeanors of the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law. McNamara was issued a traffic summons for Unlicensed Operator, a violation of the New York State Vehicle and Traffic Law.

McNamara was released on an appearance ticket and the traffic summonses and was directed to appear before the Town of Davenport Court at a later date to answer the charges.
