Police on Monday night arrested a 57-year-old Park Place woman following a domestic incident.
At about 8:59 p.m. on Nov. 7, officers traveled to her home on a report of a verbal dispute there, police said.
Following an investigation, officers charged her with disorderly conduct, according to a police report.
It isn’t clear what sparked the argument, who was involved, what prompted the misdemeanor charge or who contacted NCPD—police withheld further information, calling the incident a domestic matter.
Under state law, a person is guilty of disorderly conduct “when, with intent to cause inconvenience, annoyance or alarm, or recklessly creating a risk thereof, such person: (1) Engages in fighting or in violent, tumultuous or threatening behavior; or (2) by offensive or disorderly conduct, annoys or interferes with another person; or (3) makes unreasonable noise; or (4) without lawful authority, disturbs any lawful assembly or meeting of persons; or (5) obstructs vehicular or pedestrian traffic; or (6) congregates with other persons in a public place and refuses to comply with a reasonable official request or order to disperse; or (7) commits simple trespass, as provided in section 53a-110a, and observes, in other than a casual or cursory manner, another person (A) without the knowledge or consent of such other person, (B) while such other person is inside a dwelling, as defined in section 53a-100, and not in plain view, and (C) under circumstances where such other person has a reasonable expectation of privacy.”
In this case, the woman was released after promising to appear Nov. 8 in state Superior Court in Norwalk.
