On January 18, 2021 at approximately 4:08a.m., deputies from the Wyoming County Sheriff’s Office responded to Royce Road in the Town of Java for the report of a stranded motorist who was out of gas.
Upon arrival, deputies spoke with the male operator, who falsely identified himself with another individual’s New York State driver’s license.
Deputies were familiar with the individual pictured on the ID, which was clearly not the vehicle operator. Shortly thereafter, deputies discovered that the vehicle was stolen from the City of Batavia.

He is charged with criminal possession of stolen property 4t (vehicle), criminal impersonation 2nd, and aggravated unlicensed operation 3rd. Sweet is scheduled to appear in the Town of Java Court at a later date to answer the charges,
