Couple arrested for stealing pick up truck
SHERBURNE – A trip to Walmart proved to be the downfall of two alleged car thieves arrested Sunday after driving a stolen pick-up to the Norwich superstore.
Michael John Hicks, 22, of Sherburne, and Christina Marie Andersen, 24, were taken into custody at 9:30 p.m. Sunday in the store’s parking lot. The couple were in a 2007 GMC pick-up truck stolen sometime over the weekend from behind a business in the Town of Sherburne.
According to Lt. Richard Cobb of the Chenango County Sheriff’s Office, deputies were able to track the couple to Walmart thanks to a tip received by the Sherburne Police Department and passed on to the sheriff’s office.
Both Hicks and Andersen were in the vehicle when it was located. They were arraigned in Town of North Norwich Court and charged with fourth degree grand larceny, a class E felony, and fifth degree conspiracy, a class A misdemeanor, in connection with the crime.
Andersen was also charged with seventh degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, after hydrocodone and clonazepam pills were allegedly found in her possession.
According to the National Institute of Health website, hydrocodone is a prescription opiate sold under a number of brand names, including Vicodin. Clonazepam is a benzodiazepine used to control seizures and as an anti-anxiety medication to control panic attacks.
According to Cobb, both are popular street drugs.
Both Hicks and Anderson were remanded to the Chenango County Correctional Facility in lieu of $20,000 cash bail. They are due to appear in Sherburne Town Court at a later date.
