MONTICELLO – Sullivan County Sheriff’s deputies arrested

He was charged with felony weapon possession, misdemeanor driving with a suspended vehicle registration, and violations of unregistered and uninspected vehicle and was sent to the Sullivan County Jail in lieu of $25,000 bail pending future court action.
Undersheriff Eric Chaboty said Monticello Police assisted deputies at the scene.
