What began as a domestic incident ends in a police search and subsequent arrest of a man wanted in connection to a homicide last year in Johnson City. Endicott Police arrested 22-year-old Devon Carty of Brooklyn after a domestic dispute at 12 Jefferson Avenue in Endicott. Carty allegedly threw a chunk of concrete through a glass window, injuring a man inside the home. According to police, Carty broke free of officers while being escorted to a patrol car. A police K-9 unit tracked him to 308 Grant Avenue, where he was spotted on the roof of a garage apartment. He was taken into custody from the third-floor back porch of a neighboring home. He was charged with criminal mischief, reckless endangerment, and assault. Police also found that he was wanted on a felony warrant for criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, related to a homicide which took place in April of 2012. In the homicide, Derrick Mann, of Johnson City, was indicted last year by a Broome County grand jury for second-degree murder for the death of Genesis Lee on April 20 on Grand Avenue in Johnson City. Carty was wanted only on a weapons charge.
