Sullivan County resident Gary Davitt, age 52, of Youngsville, is wanted by New York State Police in Monroe on a charge of seventh-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance after being caught with drugs during a traffic stop on Route 17 in Chester last year.
Police said that at the time of the stop, Davitt was in possession of hypodermic needles, seven grams of heroin, and 11 grams of crack cocaine.
Following his arrest, Davitt was released. He later failed to retune to court, and a bench warrant was issued for his arrest from the town of Chester Court.
Davitt has been described as being 5-foot-9, weighing approximately 185 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes.
Anyone who has information regarding his whereabouts has been asked to contact New York State Police investigators in Orange County by calling (845) 782-8311.
