Arrest Report: Farmington PD Logs a Domestic Dust-Up at 2 Tunxis Street
Farmington, CT – The Farmington Police Department has once again proven that the town is not immune to drama, as one arrest was logged between January 8, 2025, at 7:00 AM and January 9, 2025, at 7:00 AM. Keeping with our ethos of being “Always Last to Breaking News,” The Farmington Mercury brings you the juiciest (and only) arrest details from this sleepy suburb.
The Incident in Question: On the night of January 8, 2025, Jonathan Sotelo, a 35-year-old resident of Farmington, was arrested at 2 Tunxis Street at precisely 10:15 PM. Mr. Sotelo faces two charges:
- Disorderly Conduct (53a-182) – The polite way of saying “public nuisance.”
- Threatening in the Second Degree (53a-62(a)(1)) – A charge that involves physical threats, reminding us all to choose our words wisely during arguments.
The incident reportedly stems from a domestic dispute. Mr. Sotelo, described as a white male, posted a $5,000 nonsurety bond and will appear in court today, January 9, 2025. To the 53a crew: Innocent until proven guilty, folks. That’s not just our opinion—it’s the law.
