According to police reports, a 28-year-old man from Saint Johnsbury, identified as Dylan Southworth, was arrested on January 16, 2026, after officers from the Vermont State Police located him at his residence on Pearl Street. Police say Southworth was wanted for multiple charges, including DUI, reckless endangerment, and cruelty to a child.
Troopers from the St. Johnsbury Barracks were on patrol when they learned about Southworth’s outstanding warrant. After confirming his identity and the warrant, officers took him into custody. He was then processed at the St. Johnsbury Barracks before being cited to appear in Caledonia County Superior Court on January 20, 2026, at 12:30 p.m. Southworth is currently being held at the Northeast Correctional Complex on a $200 bail related to the warrant.
The charges against Southworth are allegations at this stage. Court dates and details may change as the case progresses, and anyone seeking updates is encouraged to contact the criminal court clerk for confirmation.
