Law and Order: Warrant suspect located in cemetery

By Howard B. Owens

Ted E. Kingsley, 42, of Prune Street, Batavia, was arrested on a bench warrant. Police responded to a tip that Ted Kingsley, wanted on a City Court warrant, was residing at 11 Prune St., Batavia. Patrols went to the residence but were unsuccessful in locating Kingsley. Patrols checked the surrounding area, including the cemeteries on Harvester Avenue. During the check, a subject identified as Kingsley was seen running through Batavia Cemetery. Officers gave chase and Kingsley eventually stopped at the request of a police officer and he was taken into custody without incident. Kingsley was jailed on $100,000 cash bail.

Maleak H. Green, 21, of South Main Street, Batavia, is charged with criminal contempt, 1st, harassment, 2nd, criminal obstruction of breathing and unlawful imprisonment. No details released on the alleged incident reported at 1:20 a.m. Green was jailed on $10,000 bail.

Hicks-O'Connell, 27, of Ellsworth Avenue, Batavia, is charged with endangering the welfare of a child, aggravated unlicensed operation, 2nd, unlicensed operation and back seat passenger under age 16 without a safety belt. Hicks-O'Connell was stopped at 5:34 p.m Oct. 8 on Liberty Street, by Officer Jason Ivison after a complaint was received of a female driving a pickup truck with a 10-year-old child riding in the back. NOTE: After reviewing the press release following a complaint by Hicks-O'Connell (see comments), we should note the release does not specifically state a traffic stop was involved in the chargers.

Make sure you include the daily news as it says the same thing Samantha. By the way slander is spoken so it'll be fun to see you file charges for slander against a written media.

Maybe you should contact a lawyer first before you make threats, just sayin.

The press release is silent on the point of whether there was a traffic stop and perhaps we shouldn't have drawn the conclusion that there was a traffic stop involved in arresting a person for a traffic investigation and traffic offense.

However, the method of delivery of the ticket is not defamatory.

We regret jumping to the conclusion that a traffic stop was involved, as we would for any mistake, but the fact remains you were charged with a crime one way or the other.
