During a subsequent search of Torres’ home in the City of Batavia, it is alleged the Genesee County Drug Task Force encountered individuals in the home actively using narcotics while multiple children were present in the house.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marcos A. Torres, 43, of Batavia NY was charged with Criminal Sale of a Controlled Substance 3rd degree, a Class B-Felony (3 Counts), Criminal Sale of a Controlled Substance 3rd degree, a Class B-Felony (3 Counts), Attempted Assault 1st degree, a Class C-Felony, Reckless Endangerment 1st degree, a Class D-Felony, Obstructing Governmental Administration 2nd degree, a Class A-Misdemeanor, Unlawful Fleeing of a Police Officer 3rd degree, a Class A-Misdemeanor, along with several vehicle and traffic law violations.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

uniformed deputies from the Genesee County Sheriff’s Office as well as uniformed officers from the Batavia Police Department and the County District Attorney’s Office.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
