On the Beat: Bad checks and bad driving

By Philip Anselmo

Kenneth G. Shoemaker, 33, of Buffalo, was charged with a felony count of third-degree grand larceny yesterday, city police said. Shoemaker is accused of issuing checks totalling over $3,000 to a city business in August. Those checks were later returned by the bank unpaid. An investigation revealed that the account "never had sufficient funds to cover the checks." Shoemaker was arrested and sent to Genesee County Jail with no bail.


William A. Brolley, 52, of Darien, was charged with driving while intoxicated early this morning, Genesee County sheriff's deputies said. Brolley was involved in a one-car crash on Route 77 in Darien. He was also ticketed with driving left of pavement markings in a no passing zone.

All above releases were issued in published reports by the respective departments.
