The subject of the stop, Bundy, allegedly told an officer that he was involved in an argument with his girlfriend. The officer reported to the reporting officer that Bundy allegedly “trashed” a trailer and struck the woman in the arm. The officer reported that Bundy had gone into a bathroom “to be alone,” and the woman didn’t want him to and there was a scuffle. The woman allegedly told one of the officers that she did strike Bundy but it was in self-defense. The two were reportedly arguing about employment and finances. Bundy alleged that the woman punched him in the face twice, according to the report. After speaking to both parties and reviewing photos, Bundy was arrested.

- Joshua E. Stevenson, 30, of Nashua, was arrested at 8:50 a.m. on Oct. 9, and charged with three counts of simple assault (personal weapons) and criminal mischief (vandalism). Officers were called Hebert Street for a welfare check where a woman alleged that her friend’s boyfriend had assaulted her. Dispatch reported that the woman was eight weeks pregnant and she believed she was having a miscarriage. When the officers arrived, the woman was surprised they were there and told them that Stevenson was upstairs sleeping. While speaking with the woman, she stated there had been an altercation and Stevenson allegedly threw her down three times. A broken ceramic frame was also spotted by officers, according to the report. Stevenson came downstairs at that point and was questioned by another officer. The woman reportedly told an officer that Stevenson had been drinking vodka previously and she found the bottle in his backpack. When confronted about the vodka, he allegedly became defensive and pushed her down in a chair and later, on the ground several times. He also allegedly threw a picture frame across the room. She said Stevenson reportedly apologized afterwards and she texted a friend to request her children to be picked up. After the incidents, the woman reported feeling sharp pains and thought she might be having a miscarriage. An officer spoke to a friend about the text message and what she had heard, and the person backed up a lot of what the woman reported. The woman also reportedly stated that the girlfriend didn't want Stevenson arrested due to previous incidents. Another officer spoke to Stevenson and he reportedly confirmed there was an argument but allegedly denied touching the woman. Stevenson was arrested and charged, and held without bail, due to priors.

- Felicia Sweatt, 27, of Concord, was arrested at 12:20 a.m. on Oct. 24, and charged with driving after revocation or suspension and disobeying an officer. An officer traveling southbound on South Main Street near West Street observed a sedan traveling the wrong way. The vehicle exited the Tedeschi Food Shop, across the cement island, into the wrong side of the road. The officer initiated a motor vehicle stop and spoke to the person he thought was the driver who had previous run-ins with police. The officer didn’t recognize the woman with the name she was giving and spoke to the passenger who allegedly identified herself as Sweatt. The officer checked Sweatt’s information and found that she had a suspended license from April 29, 2012, in connection with a DWI, and another suspension on May 14, 2013. The booking photo for Sweatt also matched the driver not the passenger, the officer alleged. The officer spoke to both of the parties and the real Sweatt allegedly stated that she knew she shouldn’t have lied about her identity. She was then arrested. The other person was issued a summons for allowing an improper person to operate a vehicle. Sweatt was later released on $4,000 personal recognizance bail and is due in court on Dec. 9.
