Brooklyn male arrested for CPCS 1st and CPCS 3rd

On February 20, 2025, Troop B-Violent Gangs and Narcotics Enforcement Team charged Jason S. Jones, age 41, of Brooklyn, NY, with one count of Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the 1st degree (a Class A-1 felony) and one count of Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance 3rd degree (a Class B Felony).

On that same day, at approximately 12:21 p.m., members of the New York State Police were patrolling State Highway 37 in the town of Oswegatchie and initiated a traffic stop on a 2025 Honda Pilot for violating a traffic law. During the stop, the driver was identified as Jones, and while interviewing Jones, U.S. Border Patrol K9 Handler deployed K9 Orka who provided a positive alert for narcotics. 

Further investigation revealed that Jones was in possession of cocaine. He was subsequently arrested and transported to the State Police station in Ogdensburg for processing. After being arraigned in the Ogdensburg City Court he was remanded to St. Lawrence County Jail without bail.

The New York State Police were assisted by U.S Homeland Security, U.S. Border Patrol, and St. Lawrence County Drug Task Force.
