On 06/01/21, the State Police learned that Irish was meeting with someone to attempt to sell a catalytic convertor in Northfield. At this time, troopers made contact with Irish and seized the catalytic convertor. Subsequent investigation found that Irish had an active arrest warrant out of Randolph, VT for Burglary and Possession of Stolen Property. Irish was taken into custody and processed at the Middlesex State Police Barracks before being brought to Washington County Superior Court Criminal Division to answer to his active warrant.
