A South Williamsport man is facing a variety of charges after allegedly taking a vehicle without permission and crashing it, causing injury to an occupant on Oct. 25, city police said in an affidavit.
Dispatched to a home in the 800 block of Prospect Avenue to speak with the owner of the vehicle, police were informed that he had not given permission to the driver, later identified as Alexander Felver, 18, of 2345 W. Southern Ave., South Williamsport, to be in possession of the vehicle and reported it stolen at that time.
A parent later contacted police to report that her child had allegedly, along with others, been picked up by Felver around midnight and driven around in a reckless manner that made the child concerned for her safety, court documents said.
Felver ultimately allegedly crashed the vehicle in Loyalsock Township, resulting in the child sustaining a concussion.
Felver was arraigned on charges of theft by unlawful taking, unauthorized use of automobiles, receiving stolen property,recklessly endangering another person and driving without a license by District Judge Denise Dieter, and remanded to the Lycoming County Prison in lieu of $2,500.
