RUSSELL, N.Y. – Authorities say a northern New York man is back in jail after he was found sleeping in the home of a woman he's accused of kidnapping last fall.
The Watertown Daily Times reports (http://bit.ly/1xczim1 ) that state police charged 36-year-old Paul Willard of Edwards with criminal contempt for disobeying an order of protection last Friday.
Troopers say Willard was found sleeping in a 43-year-old woman's home in the St. Lawrence County town of Russell.
St. Lawrence County sheriff's deputies arrested Willard last October after they say he used a rifle to force the woman into his pickup truck. Deputies later found Willard and the woman at his home. Willard was taken into custody without incident.
He was charged with kidnapping. Willard was released from jail in December. It couldn't be determined if he had a lawyer.
