Arrests shrink Niagara’s Wanted list
The Niagara’s Wanted list is shorter with a couple of arrests.
The big one was Brody Racine. He had been on the list for more than a year when uniform patrol officers picked him up at a residence Thorold on a hunch. Investigators believe he had left Niagara, but his picture appeared on Facebook tagged the day before his arrest.
Racine, 34, faces 29 counts of fraud under $5,000, two counts of fraud over $5,000 and two counts of breach of recognizance.
Also arrested recently were Jason Perkins, 46, of Niagara Falls, who was wanted for being unlawfully at large and William Piner, 35, of Niagara Falls; who was wanted for two counts of failure to comply.
The NRP runs its Niagara Wanted program to enlist the public in locating individuals accused of crimes. The police post pictures and information on the subjects. The charges haven’t been proven in court.
