Authorities Apprehend Suspect on Run

A man has been arrested by Broome County Sheriff’s Deputies after nearly two weeks of being on the run. 29-year-old Justin Knapp was finally apprehended yesterday at a residence on Route 369 in the Town of Fenton. When authorities arrived on scene, Knapp attempted to break out a back window of the residence, but police were able to quickly subdue him with a taser. The search for Knapp has lasted two weeks, and has involved several law enforcement agencies, municipalities, and judges. Knapp was also found to be in possession of over 24 ounces of methamphetamine. He has since been arrested on an active New York State Parole Warrant, criminal possession of a controlled substance, and unlawful manufacture of methamphetamine.
