A Glenburn driver reportedly swapped seats with a passenger after Bangor police stopped him Tuesday night.

Officer Steve Jordan was driving toward downtown on Outer Hammond Street at 9:30 p.m. when he noticed a red Pontiac ahead of him weaving across the centerline.

Jordan said he saw someone on the driver’s side flick a cigarette out the window, so he pulled the driver over and shone all his lights on the driver’s side.

Jordan said he saw the driver dive into the back seat and the woman passenger slide into the driver’s seat.

The woman identified herself as Marietta Legere, 27, of Levant. The alleged driver, 31-year-old James Donovan, gave Jordan a Maine driver’s license that was suspended, Jordan said.

Dispatch told Jordan that a protection order forbade Donovan contact with Legere.

Donovan and Legere claimed the protection order had been modified to permit contact, Jordan said.

Jordan arrested Donovan for operating after suspension, possession of a suspended driver’s license and violation of a protection order.

Brewer police arrested a man for pushing his wife while he fought with their son Wednesday night.

Sgt. Perry Antone and Officer Richard Smith went to a South Main Street address about 6:45 p.m. to check on a 911 hang-up call, Smith said.

A woman answered the door and said her son had called 911 during a fight with his father, 38-year-old Phillip Urquhart.

Smith said the fight was evidently mutual and that at one point the son had thrown a wooden chair, smashing a glass tabletop.

Urquhart’s wife said Urquhart pushed her when she tried to step between him and their son. Smith said Urquhart admitted he pushed her.

Smith said the wife had no visible injuries.

Smith arrested Urquhart for assault.

A woman from Denmark received a drug summons Tuesday afternoon in Orono.

Orono police Officer Josh Ewing stopped a vehicle after it ran a stop sign about 2:30 p.m. on North Main Street. Ewing asked the driver and passenger for permission to search the vehicle and their persons.

Ewing said he conducts searches as a matter of course on about half of his traffic stops.

The car’s passenger, Nadja Sidenius, 21, of Denmark, had a baggie containing marijuana, Ewing said. He summoned her for possession.

Sidenius said she knew it is illegal to possess marijuana in Maine, Ewing said.
