On November 27, 2025, New York State Police members arrested Timothy R. Fadden, age 28, of Gouverneur, NY, for Menacing 2nd, Criminal Possession of a Weapon 4th, Criminal Possession of Stolen Property 4th, and Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance 7th.

On November 27, 2025, at approximately 11:15 a.m., Troopers responded to the Clearview Motel located on U.S. Route 11 in the town of Gouverneur for a trespass complaint. An investigation determined that Fadden and the victim were involved in a verbal argument, during which Fadden brandished a knife and made threatening remarks. Fadden left the scene prior to law enforcement arriving.

Troopers, along with the Gouverneur Village Police Department, searched for Fadden, who was later located and arrested. During a search of Fadden, he was found to be in possession of narcotics and credit/debit cards belonging to another individual.

Further investigation determined the credit/debit cards belonged to a separate victim with an open case with the Gouverneur Police Department.

Fadden was transported to SP Gouverneur for processing. He was arraigned in the Town of Gouverneur Court, where he was released under the supervision of probation.
