Charges
- Third-degree grand larceny
- Second-degree criminal possession of a forged instrument
- Second-degree criminal possession of a weapon
- Unlawful possession of certain ammunition feeding devices
- Endangering the welfare of a child

Dunbar was transported to SP Brunswick to be processed for both the arrest warrant and the additional charges. He was arraigned at the Brunswick Town Court and remanded to the Rensselaer County Correctional Facility without bail.
