Freedom woman jailed after missing court on petit larceny charge

Wellsville, NY – A 37-year-old Freedom woman was taken into custody Tuesday after police located her on a village street in connection with a bench warrant tied to a prior petit larceny case.

Rachel M. Sebree was arrested after officers acted on a bench warrant issued by the Wellsville Village Court. The warrant stemmed from her failure to appear in court on January 13 for a previously filed petit larceny charge, according to the Wellsville Police Department.

Sebree was located on South Broad Street and taken into custody without incident.

Following her arrest, Sebree was transported to the Allegany County Jail, where she is being held pending arraignment in CAP Court.

Police said Sebree is scheduled to appear in Wellsville Village Court at a later date in connection with the underlying charge.

A missed court date on a prior theft case has now landed a Freedom woman behind bars.
