Police on Friday night arrested a 33-year-old New Canaan woman at her home following a dispute with another occupant of the residence.
At about 9:48 p.m. on Nov. 25, officers were dispatched to a Jelliff Mill Road home, according to a police report.
Following an investigation, police charged the woman with disorderly conduct.
It isn’t clear what prompted police to bring the misdemeanor charge, whether or how the arrested person is related to the one with whom she had a dispute or what the argument involved.
Police withheld further information, classifying the matter as a domestic incident.
Under state law, disorderly conduct occurs when (a) A person acts 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.
Police released the woman after she promised to appear Monday in state Superior Court in Norwalk.
