NY State Police to Use Social Media to Catch Wanted Individuals

Governor Andrew Cuomo announced Wednesday that the New York State Police will use social media to help catch wanted individuals across the state.

State police will launch "Warrant Wednesday" on the division's Facebook page, asking for the public's help to track down people who have warrants out for their arrest.

Each Wednesday, wanted posters will be added to the NYSP Facebook page featuring posters of wanted persons with arrest or bench warrants from across New York state.
