August 7, 2010

Police Logs for 07/22/10 – 07/28/10

An impaired driver made his arrest easy for Londonderry Police during this week’s logs. At approximately 4 AM on July 23, Dispatch received a call that a man was sleeping in his car at a stop light in town. According to the logs, there was a “vehicle with male operator sitting asleep at the lights at Rt 102/128. No vehicle information, no plate number.” An officer responded and found the man still sitting at the lights. David Hallenborg, of Derry, was arrested and charged with Driving Under the Influence of Drugs or Liquor.

Another arrest this week resulted in alarming charges. On July 23, at about 1 AM, Londonderry Police initiated a motor vehicle check on Mammoth Road. The police logs state, “checking a vehicle with driver’s door open.” Police subsequently arrested 28 year old Andrew Gomez of Derry. His charges were Aggravated Driving While Intoxicated, Driving While Intoxicated (Second Offense) and, mostly alarmingly, Endangering Welfare of Child/Incompetent.

Londonderry Police were contacted via 911 when a female called to report “she stopped at location for another female who was screaming for help.” The victim stated that a male subject had attempted to kidnap her. He was driving a gray colored SUV and was described as being white with dark hair, a light bears, and light colored, possible gray shirt. The information was passed onto Derry Police as well as other police departments. According to Lieutenant Saunders, “this case is under investigation. No further information is being released at this time. If more information becomes available, I will update.”

Carroll Police were requesting “a stop and hold, the subjects in the vehicle threatened someone with a loaded glock.”

After following a car straddling two lanes, Sergeant Adam Dyer stopped a motor vehicle on Nashua Road about about 1:35 AM on July 18.

Would You Like to Super Size That Arrest?

June 27, 2010

Police Log for 06/10/10 – 06/16/10

Several arrests were made in Londonderry this week. One of those arrests was from an incident that occurred in the McDonalds Drive Thru in May. On the 21st of May, Officer Mottram and Officer King were dispatched at about 1:45 AM to the McDonalds on Route 102. They arrived and were waved inside by an employee. The employee told officers that “they were still in the drive-thru.” As Officer King approached the drive thru, he could hear male and female voices yelling. The female was yelling, “Do you guys think this is funny? You think it’s funny to take my food.” Officer King stated that he could hear the voices “well before I came to the corner of the building and observed that the yelling was far louder than appropriate for where we were.” Officers spoke with both suspects, who admitted to being loud and angry before police arrived. Verbal and written statements from three witnesses on scene also verified that both “were yelling and swearing for several minutes,” even after being asked to stop by a witness. Kendra Lefave was taken into custody for Disorderly Conduct on June 14 at 8:25 PM. Salvatore Pennellatore was also arrested. Both have been released on personal recognizance bail and have court dates in Derry on July 6.

Two managed to escape, but two were arrested. A juvenile was arrested for Resisting Arrest or Detention and Possession of Controlled/Narcotic Drugs.
