More arrests in Esopus family feud

An incident on Wednesday which ended with three Lanes arrested on various snowplow- and baseball-bat-related charges has yielded a few more arrests. From the Ulster County Sheriff's Office:

Detectives from the Ulster County Sheriff's Office report the arrest of two additional people stemming from a domestic incident last evening in Port Ewen. Detectives charged Brandon M. Ferraro, 22, of 272 Broadway, Port Ewen with misdemeanor Assault in the 3rd Degree. Also charged was Jessica L. Lane, 21, of the same address. She was charged with misdemeanors of Criminal Mischief 4th and Endangering the Welfare of a Child, as well as violation Disorderly Conduct.

Mr. Ferraro's charge stems from an incident around 12:30 AM on 01/12/11, whereby he allegedly struck and injured Mark C. Lane, 19, of 50 Ohio Street, Connelly. It was this incident that was the catalyst for the incident previously reported by this agency, whereby Mark and his father, Mark M. Lane, 39, same address, allegedly came to 272 Broadway armed with a baseball bat around 6:45 PM on 01/12/11.

Ms. Lane's charges stem from an allegation that after leaving the Sheriff's substation in Port Ewen on 01/12/11, she went to 50 Ohio Street, whereby she caused damage to the front door of that residence. There were also two juveniles in the residence in the immediate area of the front door while this occurred.

Both Mr. Ferraro and Ms. Lane were released on Appearance Tickets returnable to Esopus Town Court.

Date of Arrest: 01/13/11   Time: 2:30 PM

The Freeman reports that Maurice and the elder Mark are brothers, Jessica is Maurice's daughter, and Brandon Ferraro is Jessica's boyfriend. Who needs mortal enemies when you've got family?
