Chemung County Sheriff’s Office announces the arrest of JOHN A. MAIER, 42, of 103 Taylor Terrace, Hopewell, New Jersey, as a Fugitive From Justice, a Class D Felony offense of the New York State Penal Law.
Deputies were dispatched to the Saint Peter and Paul’s Cemetery to check on a report of a suspicious condition involving a vehicle parked there for an extended period of time and someone sleeping in a hammock. Deputies made contact with the subject sleeping in the hammock who was identified as MAIER.
