Young was arraigned on the charges in court on June 7.

Youthful Offender

On June 7, police served a warrant against a person under age 18, charging her with failure to respond to an infraction, stemming from a past offense of simple trespassing.

After posting $92 bail, police released the youth for a June 22 appearance in Danbury Youthful Offender Court. The identities of people under age 18 who are charged with crimes are shielded from public disclosure by state law.

Warrant Arrest

Police arrested a 17-year-old person on a warrant on June 13, charging the person with failure to respond to an infraction and with simple trespassing.
