Recommended Posts

Over the course of the past three days (11/28-11/30) the Elmira Police Department has taken six separate reports of objects being thrown onto cars from several underpass locations in the City of Elmira.

According to police, these incidents occurred shortly after dusk each day. The severity and size of the objects had increased each day. On 12/1/22 Officers with the Elmira Police Department created a plan to focus heightened patrols on several of the city’s underpass locations. Officers also utilized the departments drone along with a second FLIR equipped drone belonging to and operated by personnel with the Chemung County Office of Emergency Management.

As officers arrived at their respective locations, a vehicle was already observed to be parked and damaged at the underpass on Madison Ave. Officers immediately created a perimeter in the area and an officer, who had already been parked near Wegmans, located three juveniles on the Lackawanna Trail near E. Washington Ave. The juveniles were observed by the officer to be throwing objects onto the roadway as well.

Elmira Police Officers responded to the location and were able to safely take all three subjects into custody and transported them to EPD headquarters where they were later turned over to their parents.

This investigation is ongoing and if you have any information about these incidents, police ask you to contact the Elmira Police Department.

I hesitate to think the parents will even hold the kids responsible.  Someone could have been killed. Heck years ago someone did that on an overpass on 17 or I86 and someone did die.
