The Seneca Falls Police Department reports the arrest of a 42-year-old following a Seneca County CPS investigation.
Jason Hopf, 42, of Seneca Falls was arrested on Monday after police were requested to assist Seneca County CPS with a ‘living conditions’ investigation.
A young child was residing with him and authorities determined the home posed an immediate risk to the welfare of the child.
“The presence of drug paraphernalia, alongside knives, and broken glass within the child’s reach posed an immediate risk and safety concerns for the child,” police said in a news release.
Hopf was charged with endangering the welfare of a child and remanded to the Seneca County Jail pending arraignment.
An order of protection was also requested on behalf of the child.
