Subsequent to the previous on-going investigation, police were dispatched to investigate a similar complaint in the Fishkill area. On July 27, 2015, Troopers responded to Sam’s Club for a larceny complaint. According to loss prevention at Sam’s Club, the suspect entered the club on July 22, 2015 and stole over $2,300 of computer hardware. The suspect was described to police as a white male, wearing a green Yankee t-shirt. With the assistance of the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department, Yorktown Police Department and the Peekskill Police Department, Gordineer was positively identified as the suspect.
On August 4th, Troopers received a phone call from the Peekskill Police Department who reported that they had Gordineer in custody for an unrelated crime. Gordineer was subsequently arrested by SP Wappinger BCI for the above-noted larcenies, and he is to appear in the Town of Wappinger and Town of Fishkill Courts at a later date.
