NY State Police news

Amity-based State Police say they arrested 57-year-old Demetria E. Johnson of Cuba for Welfare Fraud 3rd Degree and Filing a False Instrument 1st Degree. An investigation led Troopers to discover Johnson had allegedly filed false paperwork with Allegany County DSS while applying for public assistance, which resulted in her receiving $448.00 in benefits to which she was not entitled. Johnson was arrested and issued an appearance ticket for Belmont Village Court, where she is due to appear in December.

While conducting a traffic stop on State Route 19 in Amity, state police arrested 20-year-old Kaylee Allessi of Elma in Erie County. She was charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance as well as a violation offense. Court action is pending.
