N.Y. State Police Seek Armed and Dangerous Man

An armed and potentially dangerous man from Westchester County is on the loose. Police say they are actively searching for him and believe he and an accomplice could be anywhere in the state or surrounding areas.

New York State Police at Cortlandt are currently searching for George J. Foster Jr, 33,of Cortlandt. Police describe Foster as a white male around 5'6, and weighing near 200 pounds.

Foster is currently wanted for menacing with a firearm and has outstanding warrants for his arrest in New York and South Carolina. He was last seen on  Locust Avenue in the Town of Cortlandt around 3:30 a.m. on Tuesday December 22.

Police presumed Foster is being accompanied by 33-year-old Renee Jones.

Jones is also wanted by NY State Police for an unrelated issue.

An official from New York State Police at Cortlandt told me this morning that Foster is still on the loose. Police have no other details about where he could be hiding. The officer did warn that Foster is considered armed and very dangerous.

Police urge all Hudson Valley residents to call 911 if you see Foster. They also ask that you do not take any action on your own.

Any person with non-emergent information is requested to contact Sean J. Morgan at (914) 737-7171.

We will update this story if and when new information is made available.
