ONEONTA – An inmate in the state's Woodbourne Correctional Facility was charged with making terroristic treats after allegedly mailing an envelope full of an "unknown, white powdery substance" to the Oneonta Police Station, according to Acting Police Chief Doug Brenner.

Kristopher J. Surdis, 43, an inmate at the state prison in Sullivan County, was arrested and charged after an investigation stemming from March 2016, when a letter with Mr. Surdis' return address at Woodbourne Correctional Facility was received by the Oneonta Police Department Records Division.

The records division had denied Surdis' FOIL requests and served him a cease-and-desist, Brenner said.
