STAMFORD — A 28-year-old Schoharie County man was arrested Tuesday on a probation warrant and charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh degree.
Delaware County Sheriff Craig S. DuMond announced that David J. Chairvolotti Jr. was taken into custody after deputies responded to a trespass complaint in the Town of Stamford.
Deputies were told that Chairvolotti, who had an active probation warrant out of Schoharie County, was on a property where he had no right to be.
Sheriff’s deputies located Chairvolotti at the residence and took him into custody on the arrest warrant.
While taking Chairvolotti into custody, deputies found him in possession of a bag containing a white crystal-like substance.
The substance was later field tested by deputies and determined to be methamphetamine.
Deputies arrested Chairvolotti on the arrest warrant for violation of probation and additionally charged him with one count of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh degree, a Class A misdemeanor.
Following the issuance of an appearance ticket for the drug charge, Chairvolotti was turned over to the Schoharie County Probation Department on the arrest warrant.
