Farmington Arrests: The Latest Buzz in Our Tranquil Town

In a town where the most exciting news often revolves around the next committee meeting or a new construction update, the recent wave of arrests has stirred the otherwise calm waters of Farmington, CT. From breaches of peace to disorderly conduct, here’s your full scoop on the latest arrests that have everyone talking.

Friday: A Tranquil Start?

It all began quietly enough. On July 25th, Nicholas G. Karangekis, our local harbinger of law and order, nabbed 66-year-old Kevin C. Tolman on Sunset Terrace. Charged with second-degree breach of peace, Tolman found himself in jail due to a domestic violence incident. Don’t worry, folks—he posted a $5,000 non-surety bond and is presumably back to contemplating the virtues of quieter hobbies.

Monday: Things Heat Up

The drama escalated over the weekend. By July 29th, two more residents were sporting fashionable new bracelets courtesy of the Farmington PD. Juan Jose Torres, a 28-year-old speed enthusiast from New Britain, was caught at Scott Swamp Road and New Britain Ave. His impressive rap sheet included speeding, improper use of markers, operating an unregistered vehicle, and a DUI. Torres believes in living life in the fast lane—just not legally.

Not to be outdone, Daniel R. Aparo, another Sunset Terrace resident, was booked for violating conditions of his release—a $10,000 non-surety bond and a court date later, he’s hopefully rethinking his life choices.

Tuesday: A Day of Diverse Delinquencies

July 29th proved to be a banner day for the Farmington PD. Shervon Harvey Lecompte from Maple Ave was hauled in on charges ranging from interfering with an emergency call to third-degree assault. His bond was set at $25,000—usually reserved for individuals who prefer their peace breached and their calls interfered with.

Meanwhile, William E. Leers of Lafayette Street was picked up on a warrant for disorderly conduct, proving that Farmington’s finest have zero tolerance for disorder, at least of the legal kind.

Wednesday & Thursday: The Calm Before the Next Storm?

The midweek arrest logs remained as mundane as a mid-July committee meeting. Youths redacted, charges unspecified—it seems Farmington was taking a breather, perhaps gearing up for the next round of headline-grabbing misdemeanors.

Friday: Domestic Drama Returns

By the end of the week, Aaron M. Benham of Litchfield Road added to the excitement with charges of violating a standing criminal protective order. Farmington’s residents need to brush up on the nuances of peaceful coexistence.

For those keeping score, the Farmington PD’s arrest logs have been a whirlwind tour of the town’s lesser-known talents—namely, getting arrested.
