Time Stops and Gets Arrested in Wheatfield
An Erie County man is facing multiple charges after an investigation into a stopped car in the road.
According to the New York State Police, troopers from the Niagara barracks responded to a call after agents with the U.S. Border Patrol allegedly found a car stopped on River Road in Wheatfield, New York at approximately 2:28am on Wednesday, July 27, 2022.
In a written release the NYSP says that the driver, identified as 28-year-old Time J. Thomas of Buffalo, New York, “was asleep with a female passenger and an eight-year-old child in the back seat. Thomas failed a pre-screen for DWI Drugs. Also located in the vehicle was cocaine, heroin and 9mm Century Arms pistol loaded with a high-capacity magazine.”
Thomas, who was on parole at the time, was arrested and subsequently arraigned at the Wheatfield Town Court.
He faces the following charges:
- Aggravated DWI with a Child Passenger Less than 16 Years Old
- Endangering the Welfare of a Child
- Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree
- Five counts of Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance
- Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the Seventh Degree
Thomas was sent to the Niagara Bounty Jail without bail because of a prior felony conviction and his parole status.
No physical injuries were reported.
