Conspiracy Charge Bound to Court

A charge against a Bradford man accused of conspiring with two other people to take a stolen car to Buffalo and trade it for drugs was bound to court today following a hearing in front of District Judge Dominic Cercone.

Robert Pierce is accused of conspiring with Tyler Sherman and a man he only knows as “Junior” to take the car that was stolen from Phillips Auto Depot. When they were unsuccessful in their attempt to sell or trade the car for drugs, they came back to Bradford and parked the car on Linwood Avenue, according to court papers.

Sherman then allegedly drove the car a block away to the McKean County SPCA so it wouldn’t be in front of his house.

Pierce remains jailed on $10,000 bail.

A charge of receiving stolen property was dismissed.

Sherman is also charged in connection to a home invasion, where he allegedly put a knife to a woman’s throat and demanded that she hand over her prescription for morphine patches, which she didn’t have.

Hearings for both of Sherman's cases have been moved to October 31. He remains jailed on a quarter of a million dollars bail.
