One man’s jealousy landed him in jail after it was reported he attacked another man whose phone number appeared on the cellular phone bill of the jealous man’s wife.

Eddie E. Overlock, 39, of Old Town was charged with assault for the Oct. 17 incident at the Stillwater One Stop convenience store. Dressed in a dark sweat shirt, knit cap and sunglasses, Overlock waited outside the store and looked to one witness as if he were preparing to rob the store.

But Orono police Officer Wilfred King said Overlock was waiting for his victim, a man who worked with Overlock’s wife. Overlock grabbed the man, pulled him outside of the store and punched him several times in the head, according to the police report.

When confronted later, Overlock claimed he knew nothing about it, although the man he allegedly hit identified Overlock as his assailant. The alleged victim said he had been expecting something as Overlock held a grudge against him ever since Overlock found his phone number on his wife’s phone bill.

A Bangor motorist missed getting to his home Wednesday evening because he drove off the road and hit another mobile home in his trailer park.

The investigating officer suspected the driver of being intoxicated and arrested him.

Bangor police Officer Wade Betters reported that Michael H. Fletcher, 44, of Bangor was still behind the wheel of the vehicle when he arrived at the scene at about 7:30 p.m. Fletcher claimed he was just trying to get home, but Betters reported that some things were amiss.

Betters reported seeing three beer cans inside the vehicle and he said that Fletcher admitted to having “one too many” drinks when the officer asked him how much he had had to drink that evening. The officer said he stopped field sobriety tests out of safety concerns for Fletcher.

Fletcher was charged with operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicants and operating a motor vehicle after license suspension.

Betters reported the man’s blood alcohol content registered 0.33 percent on the Intoxilyzer test, or more than four times the limit of 0.08 percent.
