New York State Police property stolen from Cottonwood Motel

MILLBROOK — Public knowledge is being sought in a burglary at the Cottonwood Motel over the weekend which saw items belonging to the New York State Police unlawfully removed from the premises.

According to Trooper Krystal Paolicelli, law enforcement was utilizing the Fowler Road venue for a training session when the burglary occurred, somewhere between Saturday, April 5, and Sunday, April 6, between the hours of 3 p.m. to 11 a.m.

At press time, Paolicelli was unable to verify which items — or how many items — were taken from the property, which sustained some damage as a result. She could confirm that the public is not in harm’s way, saying, “Nothing was taken that was a threat.”

The investigation is ongoing, and there are no suspects at this time. Anyone with any information may contact the New York State Police, Troop K, at 845-677-7300 or via email at crimetip@troopers.ny.gov.
