20 Arrests -Warning from YPD- Don’t Come Back to Steal in Yonkers!
Happy 40th Birthday to Paris Ramcharan of Brooklyn, New York!
We won’t forget the time Paris came to several stores in Yonkers to steal things and try to escape by hiding in a bush a few months ago. He probably wasn’t expecting Officers in the YPD AWARE Crime Control Center to be following him on camera to assist in his apprehension.
Ramcharan stole several items from Kohl’s on Central Park Avenue before fleeing with them in a suitcase. Kohl’s staff called YPD, and the AWARE Room staff quickly located Ramcharan fleeing—however, he took a quick detour to steal some more items from a nearby CVS. AWARE Room Officers then saw Ramcharan flee with a shopping cart and a suitcase full of stolen goods southbound on Central Park Avenue, ultimately attempting to hide in a bush until the coast was clear.
The AWARE Room directed Officers right to him, shocked as he may have been to be discovered in his secret hiding place. Ramcharan was charged with several misdemeanors in relation to this incident. Another example of great teamwork between our Officers on the road and our staff in our AWARE Crime Control Center. With everyone working together to apprehend these criminals, we will continue to have great success in combatting these crimes here in Yonkers.
Since his arrest here in December, Paris has been out awaiting trial but has managed to get arrested five more times for theft in NYC, even as recently as last week. This rounds out his lifelong arrest total at 20. We appreciate Mr. Ramcharan’s refraining from theft in Yonkers, although we wish he would stop taking things that don’t belong to him, no matter where he is.
