FARMINGTON — The Farmington Police Department, in a 24-hour period ending at 7:00 Thursday morning, arrested one person.

That person, identified in official records as Tyron Barrow, 48, of 29 Orange Street, Apartment C3, Hartford, CT 06102, was taken into custody at 8:45 Wednesday evening by Officer Joseph G. Aiello at 00319 New Britain Avenue. He faces a single count of larceny in the sixth degree under Connecticut General Statutes §53a-125b — which, this publication is obligated to note, is the sixth and lowest degree of larceny available under Connecticut law. Below sixth-degree larceny, legally speaking, is not taking anything at all.

A nonsurety bond of $2,500 was set. Mr. Barrow posted it. He is no longer in custody. The incident number is 2200003934.

The arrest was a warrant arrest, meaning someone, at some prior point, went to the appropriate authorities and secured a warrant. Officer Aiello then executed it, on New Britain Avenue, at 8:45 in the evening, as one does.

His court date is April 1, 2026. This is accurate. It is in the official record. The courthouse calendar has made its choice.

All persons named in the Farmington Police Department arrest log are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. In Mr. Barrow's case, that determination will be made on April 1.

Total arrests for the 24-hour period: 1. Town continues.
