Suspect has surrendered. His mother has identified him as Joe Esposito. She tells this newspaper he was high on meth, suicidal and shooting tires from cars

Shooting tires from cars? Nice! Sure am glad I postponed my trip to Watkins till tomorrow. Did anyone get hurt? I could hear helicopters and a ton of sirens a while ago.

Shooting suspect in custody after Burdett incident

"One of the vehicles struck by gunfire was an unmarked SUV being driven by Schuyler County Sheriff Bill Yessman, who just happened to be driving through the area. Another vehicle that came under fire was that of Undersheriff Breck Spaulding, who was responding to the scene after the initial shootings were reported."

Montour Falls man guilty of reckless endangerment

WATKINS GLEN -- The Montour Falls man accused of firing a weapon at law enforcement vehicles in Burdett late last year was found guilty Tuesday of reckless endangerment and menacing.

The jury, however, did not find Joseph Esposito, 25, of Frost Hill Road, guilty of attempted murder.

In October, Esposito used a rifle to randomly shoot at several vehicles, including those of law enforcement officers, Schuyler County sheriff's investigators said. Nobody was harmed in the shootings or the ensuing standoff.

Information on Esposito’s sentencing date was not immediately available

I would say that is certainly more than menacing!

As I recall, they accused him of specifically targeting police officers as they drove by - officers in unmarked cars. The vehicle that wasn't an officer, they said was one that looked like a car the department had previously owned. It's hard to imagine that this guy, especially in his presumed state of mine (the say they believe he was on drugs at the time) was aware of specific unmarked vehicles and also of the officers travel pattern that day.

It was a very bad incident and thankfully nobody was seriously harmed. The verdict seems reasonable to me.
