Police said they arrested a woman Thursday afternoon when she failed her field sobriety test after being stopped while driving on Hammond Street.

Kimberly Furbish, 33, of Bangor was driving 41 mph in a 25-mph zone when Officer Shawn Green pulled her over. As Green administered the field sobriety test, Furbish repeatedly began her tests before Green had asked her to begin, police said. She claimed she could not walk backward because of a “chemical imbalance in her head.” Green had not asked her to walk backward at that time.

Furbish was charged with OUI, warned about speeding, and was summoned for failure to show proof of insurance.

Roy Miller, 29, of Bangor was summoned Thursday afternoon after a complaint was filed at the Bangor Police Department.

According to police reports, Miller allegedly had been seen masturbating in front of a large window in his home on Palm Street. The filer of the report, a 53-year-old woman, reported that this behavior has been going on for about a year. She also stated that Miller was well aware of her whereabouts and that she could see him. Upon speaking with Officer Larry Morrill about the charge, Miller claimed he has a piercing “down there” and was merely changing the piercing so it did not heal over, and needed the sunlight to be able to see more clearly.

Miller was summoned for indecent conduct.

Police arrested a man Thursday and charged him with aggravated assault of a 58-year-old woman at her home in Crestwood Trailer Park.

Joseph Pariement, 23, of New Bedford, Mass., and another unidentified man had been witnessed hitting Pricilla Breen of Hampden with an object on Feb. 6 around 11:30 p.m. Breen was treated for head injuries at St. Joseph Hospital and was released. The unidentified man fled the scene, according to police reports. The object used in the altercation was not confirmed, but a crowbar was seized from the crime scene. According to Officers Scott Jakin and Ben Eyeles, who both responded to the scene, a warrant for car burglary had already been out in Brewer for Pariement’s arrest.

Pariement is being held at Penobscot County Jail on the aggravated assault charge and for the warrant.

A three-car accident on Main Street, Bangor, Thursday afternoon resulted in no serious injuries.

Police said Christopher P. Leakos, 38, of Hampden, driving a Toyota station wagon, drifted into the opposite lane in front of McLaughlin’s Seafood and sideswiped a vehicle driven by Cheryl A. McGuire, 48, also of Hampden and continued into another vehicle, operated by Mary E. Fernald, 49, of Bucksport.

McGuire, driving a GMC truck, suffered no injuries while Fernald, driving an Oldsmobile, was treated at the scene for a minor head injury.

Other than the wet surface, there were no other contributing factors to the accident, according to Officer Jeff Small.
