MARATHON, N.Y. — New York State Police in Homer on June 27 arrested Benjamin C. Truitt, age 28 of Marathon, for fourth degree grand larceny, a felony, after he allegedly stole a jet ski and trailer.
The State Police say there was a report of a jet ski and trailer stolen in April from outside a residence on Merrill Creek Road in the village of Marathon. An investigation revealed that Truitt hooked the trailer and jet ski to a vehicle and removed it from the property, before then putting it in the backyard of a residence on Front Street.
