The Wyoming County Sheriff’s Office reports the arrest of a Batavia man following an overnight residential burglary in Gainesville.
Jordan C. Raynor, 30, is accused of forcefully entering an occupied residence on Jordan Road at
approximately 3:47 AM early this morning, awaking a family with children while inside. Raynor fled the scene after being confronted by the family, at which time the Wyoming County
Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene.
Following a search of the area by Wyoming County Sheriff’s Deputies, with assistance from
New York State Police, Raynor was located inside a vacant residence which was currently being renovated. Deputies entered the vacant structure, confronted the suspect, and successfully took Raynor into custody.
Raynor was found to be a convicted felon, and on probation out of Genesee County after a conviction for Endangering the Welfare of a Child.
Raynor is charged with Burglary in the Second Degree, a Class C violent felony, Criminal Mischief in the Fourth Degree, and Endangering the Welfare of a Child.
Raynor was arraigned in Warsaw Town Court, where bail was set in the amount of $25,000.00 cash,
$75,000.00 bond, or $100,000.00 partially secured bond.
The Wyoming County Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate, as it is believed Raynor approached multiple residences in the Jordan Road area overnight. Further charges are pending, and there is no threat to public safety at this time.
Any residents in the area who find footprints, damage, or have home security videos with
pertinent evidence, are asked to contact the Criminal Investigations Division at the Wyoming
County Sheriff’s Office. 585-786-8989
