South County Teen Arrested After Crashing Pair of Trucks

A teenager from Celoron has been arrested for allegedly stealing two trucks, and later crashing them early Tuesday morning in the Town of Ellicott. Ellicott Town Police were called to the scene of the first accident on Town Line Road -- near Moon Road -- about 3:15 AM. Officers say they found the Chevrolet dump truck in a ditch, and that the driver, 18-year-old Gregory Messere, had left the scene.  While investigating that crash, officers received another call from a resident of Town Line Road who said a prowler was going through a vehicle.  Police then found a pickup truck in a ditch a half-mile down the road.  Police found Messere a short distance away.  He was arrested and taken to WCA Hospital for treatment of minor injuries. Messere is charged with grand larceny, unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, and DWI.
