By Philip Holmes 1 min read

Lannette Kae Garms, 52, of 286 Hill St., Jersey Shore, faces a charge of hindering apprehension after she allegedly failed to notify police that the subject of a warrant was at their shared residence despite being made aware of the pending arrest multiple times, Lycoming Regional Police said in an affidavit.

Three days after first making contact with Garms, on June 23, authorities were called to her residence for a domestic incident, where the subject of the warrant was taken into custody.

Garms allegedly admitted to knowing the male had a warrant out for his arrest and that the two shared the residence together, providing a written statement in which she acknowledged concealing him from the police.

Garms allegedly further related that she had previously seen police through her security camera, attempting to serve the warrant, and had recently told the subject to leave because she was done harboring him, a request he refused, court documents said.

Garms was arraigned by District Judge Denise Dieter, and released in lieu of $15,000 bail.
