JAMESTOWN, NY – On April 17, 2025, at approximately 2:31 a.m., officers from the Jamestown Police Department’s 3rd Platoon responded to a Southside residence to conduct a warrant check.
Upon arrival, officers were informed that 40-year-old Darren K. Mushat, a Jamestown resident, was upstairs inside the home. Mushat had confirmed active bench warrants issued by Jamestown City Court.
Police made several verbal announcements instructing Mushat to come downstairs, but he failed to comply. Officers then made forced entry into an upstairs room where Mushat was located and taken into custody without further incident.
