• DWI: Mark S. Janeiro, 27, 70 Southcrest Ave., Cheektowaga, was charged Thursday morning with driving while intoxicated. A woman walking on Main Street about 5:20 a.m. called 911 to report a Pontiac, occupied by two men, was following her. Sheriff’s deputies found Janeiro driving a car matching the description on Main Street near Chilton. Janeiro reportedly had the smell of alcohol on his breath and failed several field sobriety tests. When deputies asked if he had been drinking, Janeiro reportedly said, “Yeah, but I’m OK, baby. I’m from the Bronx, man. I’m straight.” He was taken into custody and registered a 0.16 percent blood alcohol content on a breath test. He was held in lieu of $250 bail and is due today in Niagara Falls City Court.
