Spring Valley Police detectives arrested a 38-year-old man for the second time in just days after they allegedly caught him stealing from an unlocked vehicle while under surveillance.

According to police, Jean Pierremont, 38, who is undomiciled, was initially arrested on June 29 in connection with two separate larceny-from-vehicle investigations that occurred the same day. He was charged with Burglary in the Third Degree and Petit Larceny, arraigned before Judge Mellion, and remanded to the Rockland County Jail. He was later released on June 30.

Police say that on July 2 at approximately 5:23 p.m., two Spring Valley Police detectives observed Pierremont attempting to open the doors of several parked vehicles. Detectives then allegedly witnessed him enter an unlocked vehicle and remove property.

The detectives immediately intervened, took Pierremont into custody, and recovered the victim’s stolen cash.

Pierremont was charged with Petit Larceny and was arraigned before Judge Sweet, who remanded him to the Rockland County Jail.
