Oneida County Sheriff's Deputy Brian Warcup says the Sheriff's Office was called to investigate the violation of a "refrain from" Order of Protection at a home on Route 12b in Deansboro at approximately 9:00am on Monday, January 10, 2022.
Following reports of a physical argument between David Ostrander and his live-in girlfriend, deputies arrived at the home and stated that Ostrander had locked the girlfriend "out of the house with their six juvenile children ages 2-14 after the dispute."
