It started with a carjacking in Wolcott, and ended with an attempted carjacking in Bristol before Bristol police arrested a Naugatuck man on a flurry of charges.
Bristol police reported that Friday morning, at about 10:45 a.m., they were alerted by Wolcott police of a carjacking in Wolcott. Wolcott officers told Bristol that they were looking for a black Nissan Rogue traveling at a high rate of speed along Route 69 toward Bristol.
Bristol police spotted the vehicle on North Main Street, when the suspect drove the vehicle off in in a northerly direction on North Main Street. The vehicle eventually left the roadway and crashed into some shrubbery near North Main and Curtis Street.
Bristol police said the suspect fled the Nissan and engaged officers on a footpursuit through backyards along North Main Street.
Police said a resident at 24 Roberts St. was backing his van out of his driveway on his way to work, when encountered by the suspect. Police said, while the vehicle was moving backwards in the driveway, the suspect engaged in a fight with the operator of the van in an attempt to carjack the operator’s vehicle. Police said the operator, and his wife, successfully fought off the suspect, all while the vehicle was in motion. Police said the wife was able to reach inside the vehicle, depressing the brake pedal with her hand to protect herself from being run over.
Police took the suspect into custody at 24 Roberts St.
Both the husband and wife received minor injuries and refused medical attention at the scene.
Officers arrested Shawn M. Smith, 24, of 6 Webb Rd., Naugatuck and charged him with unreasonable speed, a stop sign violation, making an improper turn, and evading of responsibility for the motor vehicle accident at North Main and Curtis. On those charges, he was held on a $2,500.

A man was killed late Friday when he was struck by a vehicle.

Police said that on Aug. 8, around 9:24 p.m., officers responded to the area near 611 Wolcott Rd. after receiving a report about a pedestrian hit by a vehicle. When officers arrived, they found a male victim, Ronald S. Perille Jr., 27, of Bristol on the roadway with critical injuries to his head and chest.

Police said Perille was struck by a vehicle operated by Sara Hubeny, 31, of Terryville. She had been operating a 2010 Mercedes Benz heading north on Wolcott Road, just south of Tunxis Road. She was not injured in the crash.

Police said just before Perille was struck, he parked his car on the west side of Wolcott Street, exited the vehicle, walked east across the roadway, and was struck in the northbound lane. His vehicle, a 2009 Cadillac CTS was not damaged in the crash.

As of Saturday, police said the investigation is continuing and no enforcement action has been taken. The department’s START (Serious Traffic Accident Reconstruction Team) is conducting the investigation.

Another arrest has been made by Bristol police in the case of Joseph Klett’s murder back in January.

Anthony Johnese, 23, of 17 Brookside Blvd. in West Hartford was present at the house party in Bristol where Klett was killed. On Friday at 12:52 a.m., police charged the West Hartford man with second degree assault, hindering prosecution in the first degree and reckless endangerment in the second degree. Police said Johnese struck a male coming to the aid of Klett with a bottle.

Police said Johnese is accused of striking a male in the head with a liquor bottle while the two were at a party at 27 Irving St. on Jan. 24 for this year.

Klett, 19, of 18 Kelley St. in Bristol was fatally stabbed at this party, said police.

Joshua Daniels was later charged by Bristol police with murder in the death of Klett.

Police said, in an effort to avoid prosecution, Johnese drove Daniels south in his car but he and Daniels were apprehended after a vehicle pursuit by officers from the High Point, N.C. Police Department on Jan. 26. Detective Peter Dauphinais of the Criminal Investigation Division of the Bristol Police Department applied for an arrest warrant for Johnese and the warrant was approved on Aug. 8.

Police said Johnese was first stopped by the Hartford police for a traffic violation. Hartford officers ran a check on Johnese and discovered both the New Britain Police Department and Bristol held arrest warrants for Johnese. Bristol police said Johnese was first turned over to New Britain whereupon he made bond and then was turned over to the Bristol police.

Johnese posted a $50,000 bond and was released pending an Aug. 25 court date at the Superior Court in Bristol.

Arthur Hapgood has been charged with the murder of his 1 year old niece.

An infant was killed Monday night on Park Street and her uncle has been charged with her murder, Bristol police have reported.

Zaniyah Calloway, 1, was transported by Bristol EMS to Bristol Hospital and then flown by Life Star Helicopter to Connecticut Children’s Medical Center after receiving a serious laceration to her mid-section. Efforts to save her life were unsuccessful and she died as a result of her injuries.

Arthur Hapgood, 36 of Waterbury, was taken into custody without incident. He was charged with murder with special circumstances (victim under 16 years of age), reckless endangerment in the first degree and risk of injury to a minor. Police said the last two charges stem from the fact that an 11-year-old child was present during the incident, but was not injured, said police.

Hapgood is being held on a $1.5 million bond and was due in Bristol Superior Court today, Tuesday, Aug. 19.

Police said during their investigation they learned Hapgood is the uncle of Zaniyah and was babysitting her at the time of the incident.  

Police said they were dispatched at 7:18 p.m. to a reported disturbance at 211 Park St. Police said a 911 caller reported that a baby had been injured. Upon their arrival, officers were met by a resident running toward them carrying a small child. The child, Zaniyah, was provided medical attention by officers immediately, police reported.

Police said additional officers arriving on scene were told that the suspected perpetrator of Zaniyah’s injuries, Hapgood, was still in the residence. As officers approached the house, the suspect came out onto the porch, said police.

Hapgood then was transported to Bristol Hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, said police. Hapgood then was transported to the Bristol Police Department where he was processed and charged.
