Police late Sunday arrested a 48-year-old New Canaan man and charged him with disorderly conduct.
At about 11:02 p.m. on April 3, officers were dispatched to an Old Kings Highway home regarding a domestic dispute between the man and another person at the residence, according to a police report.
There, police conducted an investigation and brought the misdemeanor charge.
It isn’t clear what the dispute involved, whether it turned physical or whether the arrested man is related to the victim. Police withheld details, saying it’s a domestic matter. Under state law, a person is guilty of disorderly conduct when he or she, “with intent to cause inconvenience, annoyance or alarm, engages in fighting or in violent, tumultuous or threatening behavior; or by offensive or disorderly conduct, annoys or interferes with another person,” among other reasons.
Police held the man on $15,000 bond and scheduled him to appear Monday in state Superior Court.
