Police: Man Makes Threatening Phone Calls to Yorktown Woman

Threatening Phone Calls to Yorktown Woman

A 52-year-old Yorktown man appeared in court earlier this week to answer charged that he made threatening phone calls to a woman, Yorktown police said. 

David E. Lane was charged with second-degree aggravated harassment, a misdemeanor after police received a complaint from a Yorktown woman on Oct. 29 who alleged she had received threatening phone calls from Lane.

Lane was arrested at Hudson Valley Hospital on Oct. 30 and taken back to Yorktown police headquarters for processing. The man was remanded to the Westchester County Jail in lieu of $10,000 bail. He was due in court on Nov. 6.

False Identity

A 19-year-old South Carolina man was arrested for assuming the name of another person in an attempt to conceal his true identity, Yorktown police said.

Jordan A. Shirey, of Conway, SC, was charged with second-degree criminal impersonation, a misdemeanor, when he was arrested on Oct. 25. The investigation began when police previously arrested the man on Oct. 18 and processed him on a criminal possession of stolen property charge. During the arrest processing, police revealed Shirey assumed the name of another person in an attempt to conceal his true identity. 

Shirey was remanded to the Westchester County Jail in lieu of $10,000 bail. He was scheduled to appear in Yorktown Town Court on Nov. 1.
