A Seneca Falls man has been arrested after police say he tried to forcibly enter a home in violation of a court order.
According to the Seneca Falls Police Department, 35-year-old John Battaglia was taken into custody early Friday morning following an incident the previous evening. Around 5:45 p.m. on July 17th, Battaglia allegedly violated an Order of Protection and attempted to break into a residence.
He is charged with attempted burglary in the second degree and criminal contempt in the second degree.
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.
