Charlotte Sena kidnapping suspect Craig Ross Jr. arraigned overnight

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Craig Ross Jr., the 46-year-old New York man accused of kidnapping a 9-year-old girl off a bicycle trail at a state park near Lake George, was arraigned on first-degree kidnapping charges around 3 a.m. Tuesday, according to jail records.

Gov. Kathy Hochul said during a late-night news briefing that the suspect had been identified after allegedly leaving his fingerprints on a ransom note that state police witnessed him stuffing into Charlotte Sena’s mailbox around 4:20 a.m. Monday.

Jail records show he was booked into the Saratoga County Jail in Ballston Spa, New York, around 3:40 a.m. A mugshot was not immediately available.

Ross was arraigned in the early morning hours in an emergency hearing before Justice Tim Brown at the Milton Town Court on a kidnapping charge, according to the Albany-based WNYT-TV.

State and federal tactical teams on Monday evening stormed a camper behind his mother’s double-wide trailer in Milton, just outside Saratoga Springs. 

“Within the camper, they located the suspect,“: Hochul said during a Friday evening news briefing in Latham. “After some resistance, the suspect was taken into custody, and immediately the little girl was found in a cabinet, covered. She was rescued.”

Charlotte was taken to a local hospital, where she reunited with her family, Hochul said.
