Man Facing Child Endangerment Charges In Lakewood Dispute

A Brocton man is facing child endangerment charges after he allegedly attempted to use his truck to strike another vehicle with three children inside.

Lakewood-Busti police and Chautauqua County sheriff’s deputies responded Monday at 10:30 p.m. to a reported domestic dispute on East Fairmount Avenue. Officers were told that a woman was being chased by her boyfriend and that he was “attempting to ram her vehicle with his truck,” the Lakewood-Busti Police Department said in a news release.

Officers later located the man, later identified as 19-year-old Kristian Wright, on East Fairmount Avenue. Wright was taken into custody on three counts of endangering the welfare of a child and transported to Chautauqua County Jail for centralized arraignment.
