The Town of Seneca Falls Police Department arrested a Penn Yan man on multiple felony charges Saturday evening.
Police say 28-year-old William W. Habecker was taken into custody at approximately 8:12 p.m. on January 31, 2026. Habecker was charged with grand larceny in the third degree, a Class D felony; falsifying business records in the first degree, a Class E felony; scheme to defraud in the first degree, a Class E felony; and criminal impersonation in the second degree, an A misdemeanor.
According to police, Habecker was arrested without incident. He was processed at the Seneca Falls Police Department and released on an appearance ticket.

The fact that a defendant has been charged with a crime is merely an accusation and the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
