CHARLOTTE – Two people are facing charges in connection with a home break-in on Old Chautauqua Road in the Town of Charlotte Friday.

The Chautauqua County Sheriff’s Office says a witness allegedly spotted Merle Smith, 38, and Kimberly Scriven, 40, enter a residence without permission and steal a television.

Both reportedly fled prior to police’s arrival although, deputies say, they were located a short distance away.


Scriven was processed and released with an appearance ticket for second-degree criminal trespass.

Smith was processed and released with an appearance ticket for second-degree burglary and petit larceny.

Both are scheduled to appear in Town of Charlotte Court at a later date.
