Vermont State Police say a 30-year-old resident of Richford was cited for unlawful mischief following an incident on River Street on June 8, 2026. Authorities responded to reports of damage at an apartment building where it was alleged that Troy Pecor had forcibly entered by breaking the front door.
According to police, the landlord was alerted by neighbors about the damage, prompting the response. Upon arrival, troopers discovered that an altercation had taken place, resulting in Pecor causing significant damage to the door and the interior of the apartment. He was issued a citation at the scene to appear in court.
Pecor is scheduled to appear in Franklin Superior Court in St. Albans on July 28, 2026, to address the charge. The allegations against him remain unproven until resolved in court. Court dates and charges may change as the case progresses, and individuals are encouraged to verify details with the court clerk.
