Cumberland police serve warrant and issue littering citation — handcuffs

Woman arrested on warrant as man cited for dumping trash in Cumberland

CUMBERLAND, Md. — Police in Cumberland made two separate enforcement actions over the weekend, including an arrest on a warrant and a citation for illegal dumping.

Authorities said Kaitlyn Marie Alexander, 27, was arrested March 23 after officers served a bench warrant tied to her failure to appear in court on March 20. She had originally been charged with possession of paraphernalia.

Alexander was later released on her personal recognizance following a bond hearing.

In a separate incident on March 22, an officer on foot patrol near the George Washington Headquarters and the Western Maryland Scenic Railroad observed a man throwing items over a fence.

The suspect, identified as Leon Frank Corley, 41, was issued a criminal citation for littering and dumping under 100 pounds.

He was released pending trial in Allegany County District Court.
