On January 28, 2022, at about 3:30PM, members of the Corning Police Department traveled to the Tioga County NY Jail and arrested: MEGAN D. MARSH, age 35 of Savona, NY. Ms. Marsh was being released on a $10 bail after incurring the charges of Criminal Possession of Stolen Property 3rd Degree, a D felony, and Unlawful Fleeing a Police Officer In A Motor Vehicle 3rd Degree, a misdemeanor, when she allegedly led police on a vehicle pursuit in a stolen vehicle taken from the Village of Painted Post.

These charges allege that Ms. Marsh was the person that stole an idling motor vehicle from Baker Street in the City of Corning on January 24th and dragged the owner when he tried to prevent her from stealing his car. That vehicle was later recovered in Watkins Glen by the Watkins Glen Village Police Department.

Additionally, Ms. Marsh has been charged on Corning City Court warrants alleging that she failed to appear on previous drug charges and Disorderly Conduct charges.
