Repeated Harassment, Shoplifting, Bail Jumping: Yorktown Police Blotter:
Three recent arrests

Three recent arrests from the Yorktown Police Department:
- An 18-year-old Mahopac man has been charged with criminal contempt for violating the terms of an order of protection. According to police, he went to the Jefferson Valley Mall and harassed someone who already had an order of protection against him -- at their place of employment. He was released without bail. His name is being withheld because he is eligible for youthful offender status, police said.
- A 38-year-old Mahopac resident, Dawn Variara, is due in Yorktown town court June 9 to answer a charge of petty larceny, a misdemeanor. Police said they were called to the Taconic Pharmacy on Lee Road in April about a shoplifting incident that involved $12.59 worth of merchandise. Variara was identified as a suspect and turned herself in, police said.
- Robert D. Reichert is in the Westchester County Jail after Yorktown police arrested him on two active warrants in connection with petty larceny, drug possession and bail jumping incidents from 2015. He had been arraigned Aug. 27 on the drug charge; and after an incident was reported at BJ's Wholesale Club Aug. 29, police identified him as a suspect in that incident. But he had left the state. An arrest warrant was issued for the shoplifting incident; and when Reichert did not appear for his court date on the drug charge, a warrant was issued for bail jumping.
