Monroe County Sheriff’s deputies responded to the Speedway in the 4900 block of W. Henrietta Rd. in the Town of Henrietta for a burglary alarm at 3:10 in the morning on November 4, 2023. The alarm company witnessed a man on the security cameras as he stole cigarettes and placed them in a black duffle bag inside the closed store. The first arriving deputy observed a man exit the store carrying a black duffle bag. Upon seeing the deputy, the suspect ran around the back of the building. The deputy released his K9 partner, who quickly caught the suspect, assisting deputies with taking him into custody. Deputies recovered the black duffle bag containing over $5,000 in stolen cigarettes.
Deputies arrested and charged Carmichael Marrero, 36, of Rochester with:
- Burglary in the Third Degree (Class D-Felony)
- Grand Larceny in the Third Degree (Class D-Felony)
