A Port Chester man wanted in connection with a drug investigation that has already led to more than a dozen arrests was spotted in downtown Port Chester and arrested after he led a village officer on a foot chase, according to Port Chester Police.
Todd Fraiser, 43, who has been a resident of Townsend Street, was spotted and recognized by a village officer at about 12:11 p.m. on Tuesday. Fraiser, police said, was wanted on charges stemming from in which Port Chester Police and Westchester County Police joined forces to investigate illegal drug sales on the streets of Port Chester.
When the village officer approached, police said, Fraiser ran off. The village officer chased Fraiser along Traverse Avenue and followed him — and caught him — even after jumping over a fence in an effort to escape.
Fraiser faces a hearing in Port Chester Village Court.
That should be the FIRST thing to go if they are convicted of drugs sales etc. Time to put some teeth into where all of our hard earned tax dollars are going. ENOUGH OF THE MADNESS..............
you wouldnt dare say that to his face
Thursday, December 27, 2012 15:40 My comment in response to Down Da Way regarding residents who become police officers: Purdy Avenue, Traverse and Weber are not foreign to Port Chester Police Officers. Many of them grew up either on one of those streets and surrounding neighborhoods. ( I am, myself, originally from Purdy Avenue). Instead of letting people get away with things because they have family and friends here, just the opposite is true. Because many of our officers are from here and many continue to live here, they have a direct stake in the community in that they want to make Port Chester a better and safer place to live for not only themselves but for their friends and family. We are interested in protecting the lives and property of the law abiding people in our community throughout the Village. To say those who grew up here and continue to live here and raise families would be less tolerant of crime is absurd.
