According to the Farmington Police arrest log for 7 a.m. July 14 to 7 a.m. July 15, 32‑year‑old Alanna Maynard was apprehended at 5:12 p.m. on July 14 outside 319 New Britain Avenue. Police say the Vernon resident answered the eternal question, “Whose car is it anyway?” with the wrong punchline. She posted a $3,000 surety bond and will appear in court July 23—assuming she drives something she owns to get there.

Officers clocked the arrest at 3:07 p.m. near 500 South Road. Stewart faces first‑degree criminal trespass and sixth‑degree larceny—totaling a $2,500 non‑surety bond—plus a court date of July 22 where receipts are still optional.
