Auburn man arrested on stolen property charge in Aurelius

AURELIUS — The Cayuga County Sheriff’s Office arrested an Auburn man on a felony charge stemming from a June traffic stop involving a stolen pickup truck.

Kaya J. Frazier, 23, was arrested July 27 at 6:27 p.m. on a warrant charging him with criminal possession of stolen property in the fourth degree, Sheriff Brian Schenck said July 31.

Deputies conducted a traffic stop of a pickup truck on Beech Tree Road in Aurelius on June 10 at approximately 11:30 p.m.

The driver was released with traffic tickets at the time, and Frazier was a passenger in the vehicle.
