On June 9, 2026, at approximately 12:33 p.m., members of the Troop K Community Stabilization Unit (CSU), with assistance from the Yorktown Police Department and the Putnam County Sheriff's Office, attempted to stop a stolen 2020 Toyota RAV4 traveling northbound on the Taconic State Parkway in the Town of Yorktown.
