Chase H. Lotter |
Today at 2:30 a.m. troopers responded to the Crosby’s convenience store on State Route 19 in the town of Amity for a robbery. Further investigation by the Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) indicated that a white male demanded that the clerk give him all the money in the register. The clerk complied. The male threatened the use of a gun, but did not display one. The suspect then exited the store and parking lot on foot, last seen traveling southbound on Route 19.
The male has since been identified by New York State Police
as Chase H. Lotter, 27 of Genesee. State
police and the Bolivar Police Department have obtained arrest warrants for
Lotter for both the Crosby store heist and the bank robbery at Steuben Trust in
Bolivar July 24th. Lotter is believed to be operating a stolen green
in color Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck bearing NY registration 47120JK. If
you have any information on Lotter’s whereabouts, contact the NYSP at
585-344-6200. Do not approach Lotter, he is considered dangerous. Steuben Trust
