Teen arrested for taking vehicle illegally in Seneca County

A 17-year-old has been charged following an incident in Romulus involving the unauthorized use of a vehicle, the Seneca County Sheriff’s Office announced.

The arrest occurred on June 18 at 4:22 p.m., after deputies responded to a 911 call reporting a vehicle taken from a private driveway without permission. According to the sheriff’s report, the victim discovered her car missing and immediately contacted emergency services. The vehicle was returned several hours later, and deputies took the adolescent offender into custody.


The teen was charged with unauthorized use of a vehicle in the third degree. Due to the offender’s age, he was issued a juvenile appearance ticket and released to a legal guardian. He is scheduled to appear at Seneca County Probation at a later date.

The Sheriff’s Office has not released the name of the adolescent offender.
