DOLGEVILLE, NY β This oneβs got people talking, and once you see the timeline, youβll understand why.
According to official New York State Police records, 66-year-old William J. Snell of Dolgeville was involved in two separate incidents on April 27, 2026 β both leading to charges.
First Incident β Forcible Touching Charge
The first incident was reported around 5:00 PM in the Village of Dolgeville.
Snell was taken into custody shortly after, around 5:45 PM, on a charge of Forcible Touching (PL 130.52) β a misdemeanor involving alleged unwanted sexual contact.
He was later processed at approximately 9:52 PM and released at 10:45 PM.
Bail was set at $250 cash.
Second Incident β DWI and Felony Charges
Just over an hour after the first incident was reported, a second case involving the same individual was logged at approximately 6:10 PM β also in Dolgeville.
This time, the charges were vehicle-related and more serious:
- Driving While Intoxicated β 1st Offense (Misdemeanor)
- Aggravated Unlicensed Operation β 3rd Degree (Misdemeanor)
- Aggravated Unlicensed Operation While Under the Influence (Felony)
For this incident, records show Snell was issued an appearance ticket, meaning he was not held on bail.
Scanner Reports (Unconfirmed)
According to scanner traffic around the time of the incidents, the situation may have unfolded on Lamberson Street in Dolgeville.
Scanner reports indicated:
-
A male subject was reportedly outside and appeared intoxicated
-
A female employee allegedly reported that the individual had touched her
-
The male was reportedly sitting near a vehicle belonging to the female employee in a parking lot
Important: These details come from scanner reports and have not been officially confirmed by law enforcement at this time.
What Stands Out
Two separate incidents.
Same day.
Same individual.
Within roughly an hour of each other.
One resulted in a $250 bail and release the same night.
The other included a felony charge and still resulted in an appearance ticket.
Thatβs the timeline β straight from the records.
What people choose to take from that is up to them.
