On Friday, August 2, 2024, at approximately 11:20 a.m., the Clarkstown Police Department received reports that two males were in a dispute, with one of the males brandishing a handgun in the Home Depot parking lot, located at 43 Hutton Ave., Nanuet.
As Clarkstown Police officers were responding to the scene, an off-duty Clarkstown Police detective provided crucial information, describing a shirtless male with a gun engaging in a dispute with another male. The unknown male fled into the store, while the armed suspect and a female accomplice entered a black BMW X3 and fled the parking lot.
The detailed description allowed responding officers to quickly locate and stop the suspect’s vehicle on Route 59 near Grandview Ave. in Nanuet. Both occupants of the BMW, later identified as Adreon Clair, 26, and Ashley Clair, 26, both from Patterson, NJ, were detained for questioning.
During the investigation, an officer discovered a black semi-automatic handgun partially visible in a handbag on the front passenger side of the vehicle. The firearm was secured and found to be loaded with fifteen rounds of ammunition in the magazine and one round in the chamber.
Mr. Adreon Clair and Ms. Ashley Clair were placed under arrest and transported to Clarkstown Police Headquarters for processing. They have been charged with the following offenses:
Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the 2nd Degree (Felony)
Unlawful Possession of a Certain Ammo-Feed Device (Misdemeanor)
Both suspects were arraigned in the Town of Clarkstown Justice Court, where the magistrate set bail at $20,000 for Mr. Adreon Clair and $10,000 for Ms. Ashley Clair. Following the arraignment, they were transported to the Rockland County Jail.

A grand jury in Lower Manhattan indicted former NYPD detective Victor Romero on a second-degree murder charge Tuesday afternoon, upgrading the charge from manslaughter as the investigation into a fatal shooting continues.

Romero, a Haverstraw resident, was seen publicly for the first time Tuesday as he arrived at a Lower Manhattan courthouse in connection with the fatal shooting of Koran Irvine on the George Washington Bridge. He later left the courthouse following a brief court appearance.

The indictment marks a significant development in the case against Romero, who was initially charged with murder before being arraigned last week on a reduced charge of first-degree manslaughter.

Romero posted $1 million bail and remains free while the case proceeds through the court system.

October 26, 2026 — Three Haverstraw police officers were injured after a suspect allegedly struck and ran over an officer while fleeing police during a response to a reported attempted break-in on October 23, according to the Haverstraw Police Department.

Police said officers responded to a residence in the Village of Haverstraw at approximately 4:41 p.m. for a report of a disorderly male attempting to break into a residence.

Responding officers located a vehicle matching the description provided. As officers gave the driver verbal commands to exit the vehicle, the suspect allegedly accelerated directly toward an officer, striking and running over the officer before fleeing the scene.

The suspect then led officers on a pursuit southbound along Route 9W into Clarkstown before turning northbound toward Haverstraw, police said.

The pursuit ended after the suspect allegedly crashed into a Haverstraw Police Department vehicle occupied by police personnel. The suspect was subsequently taken into custody.

Three Haverstraw police officers were transported to local hospitals for treatment of injuries sustained during the incident. The suspect, identified as Isaac Catedral, 24, of Haverstraw, was also transported to a local hospital for medical evaluation.

Suspect Faces Multiple Charges

According to police, Catedral faces the following charges:

  • Aggravated Attempted Murder
  • Assault in the Second Degree
  • Assault in the Third Degree
  • Criminal Mischief in the Second Degree
  • Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance in the Seventh Degree
  • Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Fourth Degree

Catedral was arraigned on the morning of October 26 in the Village of Haverstraw Justice Court and remanded to the Rockland County Correctional Facility.

Multiple Agencies Assist

The Haverstraw Police Department received assistance from the Stony Point Police Department, Rockland County Sheriff’s Office, Clarkstown Police Department, New York State Police, and Ramapo Police Department.

The incident remains a serious reminder of the dangers police officers face while responding to emergency calls and attempting to apprehend suspects.
