Potsdam man charged after leaving LSD at local law enforcement agencies in July

CANTON -- A Potsdam man has been charged for leaving gold foil packets of LSD on the doors of several local municipal law enforcement agencies.

These charges are a result of an investigation into the placing of gold foil packets containing LSD on the doors of the Public Safety Building located at 49 ½ Court St. in the Village of Canton, Potsdam Police Department, Norwood Police Department and Norfolk Police Department on July 18.

Jukic was arrested at his residence in the Village of Potsdam Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 21, by Sheriff’s Deputies without incident.

He was arraigned by Morristown Town Judge Phillips virtually and released to reappear in court at a later date.

The Sheriff’s office was assisted by the New York State Police, Potsdam Police Department, Canton Police Department, Norwood Police Department, Norfolk Police Department, Homeland Security Investigation (HSI), North Country Crime Analysis Center and St. Lawrence County District Attorney’s Office.

St. Lawrence County District Attorney Gary M. Pasqua stated that, “the purpose of law enforcement in our community is to promote public safety and uphold the rule of law to protect our liberty and foster the safety we value and enjoy here in St. Lawrence County.”

DA Pasqua adds that “the reason we experience such safety, and the priority of such a prosecution is based on the trust and accountability the various law enforcement agencies have built with communities throughout St. Lawrence County; any threat to those agencies is a threat to the people they are sworn to protect. I appreciate Public Servants who protect us and this community, which has proven time and again that it supports a safe society where the rule of law is enforced.”

No further arrests are expected at this time.
