SCIO — A 36-year-old Buffalo man is facing charges after New York State Police say he and his 15-year-old son were caught breaking into vacant campers at Breezy Point Camp Ground.

According to NYSP, William L. Smith “had taken his son for a walk around the camp ground and began breaking into vacant campers. The pair was scared off when the owner confronted them.”

Smith was charged with trespassing, fourth-degree criminal mischief and endangering the welfare of a child. He was processed at SP Amity and arraigned at the Town of Scio court where he is set to re-appear next month. Bail was set at $5,000 and Smith was remanded to the Allegany County Jail.
