FONDA A Montgomery County Court jury on Friday convicted a Johnstown man of criminally negligent homicide in the November 2018 death of a state trooper.
Court Chief Clerk Timothy Riley said Monday that Aaron M. Munise, 34, was found guilty of felony criminally negligent homicide in the death of Trooper Jeremy VanNostrand, 36, of Rotterdam.
Troopers said that on Nov. 27, 2018, at approximately 7:45 a.m., VanNostrand was reporting to work at the state police barracks in Fonda when he was involved in a motor vehicle crash on Route 5S in the town of Glen.
VanNostrand was stopped in the westbound lane of Route 5S, waiting to turn into the station in his personal vehicle, when he was rear-ended by a box truck driven by Munise of Johnstown, and pushed into oncoming traffic. His vehicle was then hit by a pickup truck traveling eastbound.
