BARDONIA – A 16-year-old youth is under arrest following his capture by Clarkstown Police K-9 Remy in a stolen vehicle case.
Police were called to the area of Schweizer Lane and Ludvigh Road in Bardonia at around 10:30 p.m. on Monday, November 27 for a report of a man driving a stolen car.
Officers saw the car and attempted to stop it with a brief pursuit ending in the area of the Nanuet firehouse. The suspect, a 16-year-old male, fled on foot in the area of railroad tracks behind the firehouse. He would not comply with officer commands and was forcibly restrained by K-9 Remy.
The youth, whose name police did not make public because of his age, was taken to Nyack Hospital for a medical evaluation and later charged with grand larceny and criminal possession of stolen property, both as felonies, as well as the misdemeanor of reckless endangerment and 14 summonses for violations of traffic law.  He was sent to the Rockland County Jail in lieu of $5,000 bail.
