Vermont State Police say that a traffic stop in Georgia on January 11, 2026, led to the arrest of a 50-year-old resident, Lance Therrien. Troopers from the St. Albans Barracks were on patrol when they located Therrien at a residence on Cline Road and confirmed he had an active arrest warrant.
According to police reports, Therrien was taken into custody and transported to the Northwest State Correctional Facility in St. Albans, where he is being held on a $200 bail. He faces charges related to disorderly conduct, specifically for engaging in fighting behavior, as stated in the Vermont Statutes Annotated. Following his arrest, Therrien received a citation requiring him to appear in Franklin County Criminal Court on January 12, 2026, at 1:00 PM.
These charges are allegations, and Therrien’s legal status could change as the case progresses. The court date is set to address the charges he faces.
