Assault Suspect Arrested Twice in 4 Days

Woman is accused of tearing out victim's hair and trying to strangle him.

 

Greenwich Police say a 35-year-old woman was arrested for the second time in four days following a verbal and physical argument that involved tearing out the victim's hair and trying to strangle him.

According to police reports, the first arrest of Skylaire Alfvegren, of 67 Valley Rd., Greenwich, occurred shortly after 4:30 p.m. Dec. 20 after police were summoned by a 57-year-old man who reported he was hit several times by Alfvegren. When police tried to escort her from the home, she resisted by "screaming, dragging her feet, kicking into the air and flailing her arms," according to a report. Alfvegren was charged with second-degree breach of peace and interfering with an officer and released on a promise to appear Dec. 21 in state Superior Court in Stamford.

The same victim called police again about 9:25 p.m. Christmas Eve and reported he was attacked with a pipe and that Alfvegren hit him in the head several times, "pulled the victim's hair out, choked the victim, bit the victim (on) the arm and broke the telephone the victim was using to call police." The victim was taken to Greenwich Hospital for treatment of his injuries.

Alfvegren was charged with disorderly conduct, interfering with a 911 call, third-degree assault and second-degree strangulation. She was released on a promise to appear Dec. 26 in state Superior Court in Stamford.

The police reports did not provide a motive for the arguments or alleged attacks.

Linda T., I would guess Mrs. Brakewood lives in Port Chester if she is running for the Port ChesterRead More Board of Ed. Even if the schools had to impose an austerity budget, your taxes would still go up. The state has more control in these matters than you think.

Linda, the per pupil expenditure in PC schools is the lowest in Westchester and Rockland countiesRead More ... by about $2,000 per student. The issue is two fold. First, our property values are not as strong as our neighbors, so our homes have a higher levy in order to fund the schools. Second, and more important, is that the reliance on property taxes slams moderate income communities like PC. We need for the state to move to an income tax to fund schools. Scream at your legislators ... not the BoE.
