Palmer
MONTICELLO – A Monticello man is charged with burglary, criminal mischief and resisting arrest for breaking into an apartment on Shaker Heights Drive in the village.
A witness reported seeing Kannon Palmer, 25, climb up a balcony at the apartment complex and force his way into a residence by forcing his way through a sliding door.
The tenant, who was at work, came home and let officers in through the front door.
Monticello Police with assistance from State Police searched the apartment and found Palmer hiding under a mattress. He was pulled out by Monticello K-9 DECA and taken into custody.
Palmer was also wanted by Monticello Police on two separate arrest warrants, one for failing to appear in court on a DWI charge and another on charges of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, criminal obstruction of breathing or blood circulation and harassment as a result of a domestic dispute. He was sent to the Sullivan County Jail in lieu of $25,000 cash bail or $50,000 bond.
