The Chemung County Sheriff’s Office says a 40-year-old Addison woman was arrested as a fugitive from justice while she was appearing in Southport Town Court on unrelated charges.
According to the sheriff’s office, Christina Lynn Martinsen was taken into custody Thursday, Nov. 12. Authorities said the Tioga County Sheriff’s Office in Pennsylvania wants her on a controlled-substance contraband charge.
Martinsen was arraigned following the fugitive arrest and remanded to the Chemung County Jail. The sheriff’s office said she will remain there while extradition proceedings move forward.
The Pennsylvania charge is an allegation. The release did not provide additional information about the underlying case or a timetable for the extradition process.
