Lowville Police charge St. Lawrence County resident for allegedly issuing bad checks

LOWVILLE- A man from Potsdam, NY is accused of writing back checks in Lewis County.

According to the Lowville Village Police Department, Ryan P. Clement, 40, was located in St. Lawrence County and returned to Lowville to be processed on one felony charge of grand larceny in the fourth-degree, along with two misdemeanor counts of issuing a bad check and one misdemeanor count of petit larceny. 

Village police officials say the charges stem from a pair of separate investigations involving businesses in Lowville, NY, where Clement allegedly issued checks knowing he did not have the funds to cover them.

At press time, police said that Clement was arraigned in Turin Town Court before being remanded to the Lewis County Jail and held, with no bail.
