Police before dawn Monday arrested a 46-year-old New Canaan woman and charged her with disorderly conduct.
At about 3:46 a.m. on Feb. 28, officers were dispatched to a North Wilton Road home regarding a dispute between the woman and another person at the residence.
Following an investigation, police charged her with the misdemeanor offense.
It isn’t clear what the dispute involved, whether it turned physical or whether the arrested woman 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 released the woman after she promised to appear March 1 in state Superior Court.
