Ellis Hancox, 20, was arrested by Oneonta Police after surveillance footage from the OPT showed him trying to board the Hillside Commons bus at 2:10 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 1, before turning away from the bus and allegedly kicking the glass door, causing damage to the bottom glass panel, Brenner said.

Oneonta Police matched surveillance footage from the OPT to Hancox’s Hartwick College ID card and arrested him on Wednesday, Sept. 5. He was charged with Criminal Mischief in the third degree, a felony.
