Cortland Man Arrested by Cortland Police After Burglary Investigation

Cortland Police say they have arrested 40 year old Christopher M. Hewes after an investigation into a burglary that took place at a residence on Court Street in the City of Cortland back in October.

The investigation found Hewes to be a suspect in the burglary. CPD says Hewes was arrested on an unrelated warrant for his arrest when officers found Hewes to be in possession of property that was stolen from the residence on Court Street.

Hewes was charged with Burglary in the 2nd, a Felony, Criminal Possession of Stolen Property in the 5th, and Petit Larceny, both Misdemeanors. He was processed and arraigned where he was then remanded to Cortland County Jail on no bail. He is due in Cortland City Court next month.
