Vermont State Police say a traffic stop in Mount Holly on December 23, 2025, resulted in the arrest of 46-year-old Nicholas Turco, who allegedly fled from law enforcement earlier that morning. According to police reports, Troopers from the Rutland Barracks initiated the stop around 9:22 AM after Turco was found driving with a criminally suspended license. He also had an active in-state warrant with a bail set at $500.
Police say Turco violated several court-imposed conditions, including operating a motor vehicle on a public highway despite his suspended status. Following his arrest, Turco was taken to the Rutland Barracks for processing and issued citations for charges including eluding a police officer, resisting arrest, and multiple violations related to his release conditions.
Turco was transported to the Vermont Superior Court in Rutland for his in-state warrant. According to the report, he is scheduled to appear in court for the warrant on December 23, 2025, and for the additional charges on February 9, 2026, at 10:00 AM. All charges are allegations at this stage, and court dates may change as the case progresses.
