Man arrested for third time at same property in Lyndonville

LYNDONVILLE, VT — A Lyndon man was arrested June 23, 2026 after police found him hiding in a crawl space at a property where he had been arrested twice before in recent days.

Wyatt Gilman, 26, of Lyndon, was charged with unlawful trespass of a dwelling, violation of conditions of release and resisting arrest.

A Lyndonville Police Department patrol officer conducting an exterior building check at 16 Brookside Lane found an unsecured window.

The property had been the site of two prior arrests since June 19, 2026 involving a man returning despite being evicted.

Officers entered the building and found Gilman hiding in a small closet or crawl space off an upstairs bedroom.

Gilman resisted arrest and was physically taken into custody.

He was held at the Lyndonville Police Department before a court ordered him held in lieu of $500 bail.

Gilman was lodged at the Northeast Regional Correctional Facility.

The Vermont State Police assisted during the building search and arrest.
