BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — A judge has revoked release for an 18-year-old arrested eight times in Erie County since New Year's Eve
The Erie County District Attorney's Office announced Erie County Court Judge Kenneth Case revoked release for 18-year-old Kahill J. Reeves of Buffalo. Reeves has been charged in connection to numerous crimes involving stolen vehicles.
Our office filed a motion to request that the defendant be held without bail as he is accused of committing additional crimes following his arraignment on multiple pending cases while being released on his own recognizance as all of the charges are non-qualifying offenses for bail. Last week, Judge Case granted the motion and remanded the defendant on four of his cases pending in Buffalo City Court.
