An Auburn man was charged with a felony count of aggravated family offense after Auburn Police observed him walking with a person who has an active stay-away order of protection against him.
According to Auburn Police, Jeffrey Strachan, Senior, was walking with the victim in the area of Kwik Fill on State Street. The stay-away order of protection prohibits Strachan from being with or contacting the victim in any way. It was issued after a previous domestic incident.
Strachan was arrested without incident. While he was being taken into custody, police reported they found a quantity of crack cocaine on him.
Strachan also had a previous conviction of a specified family offense within the preceding five years, which adds a felony charge to this domestic incident.
In addition to Aggravated Family Offense, Strachan was charged with criminal contempt and criminal possession of a controlled substance. He was brought to the Cayuga County Jail to await arraignment.
