A Bangor man was summoned by police Saturday night after he allegedly exposed himself to a woman delivering food he had ordered from a Brewer restaurant.
The 25-year-old deliverywoman told Bangor police that when she brought the order to a residence on Everett Street, she was met at the door by a man who was wearing only a pair of dark-colored pajama bottoms. After she handed him the food, the man pulled down the pajamas and exposed himself to her, according to the police report.
The woman returned to her car, but when she turned to look back at the house she said the man had come onto the front porch and begun to fondle himself. She returned to her workplace in Brewer and informed her employer, and then reported the incident to Bangor police.
Officer David Bushey went to the Everett Street residence and knocked on the door, but the man inside initially refused to answer, police said.
Eventually the man came out and, holding a growling pit bull by the collar, identified himself as John Milan, 42, police said.
Bushey asked Milan to put the dog inside, but the suspect was irate and refused to comply, police said. Milan eventually calmed down and took the dog inside.
A woman came out of the residence and said she was inside while the alleged events transpired. Milan denied exposing himself to the deliverywoman. The woman with Milan then reportedly told Bushey that Milan’s pajamas “are always falling down,” and Milan then admitted that that may have happened. Then he said that that did not happen, and the officer should not believe the deliverywoman, according to the police report.
Bushey told Milan he was not believable because he had changed his story several times, and he issued him a summons on a charge of indecent conduct.
An alleged domestic assault Saturday night led to the arrest of a Bangor man.
Bangor police Officer Chris Blanchard responded to a report from an Ohio Street residence, where he was met at the door by a woman and her 3-year-old daughter. According to Blanchard, the daughter immediately said, “My daddy punched my mommy,” and “My daddy pushed my mommy on top of me.”
Blanchard said he first spoke with the alleged victim’s husband, Derrick Knowlton, 31. Knowlton said his alarm clock did not go off, and he got upset and grabbed and smashed the phone and pushed the television around. He then said his wife punched him in the nose, so he pushed her.
Blanchard then spoke with the victim, who said Knowlton had been yelling at her. She said she asked him what his problem was, and that he blamed her for the alarm not going off. He then grabbed her purse and threw it out the window, police said.
The victim told Knowlton she would call the police, so he grabbed the phone from her and smashed it on the floor, police said. He then pushed her twice, and she pushed him back. He pushed her against the wall a couple of times, and then knocked her down to the floor and punched her in the face, police said.
Blanchard arrested Knowlton on charges of domestic assault and obstructing the report of a crime, and then transported him to Penobscot County Jail.
The suspect in a hit-and-run accident Saturday night in Bangor was found a few blocks from the scene of the crime, according to police reports.
At 8:50 p.m. police Officers Al Woolley and Dennis Townshend responded to a report of a hit-and-run involving two cars at Broadway and Falvey Street. One of the drivers said the vehicle that rear-ended him was a small red car driven by a woman with shoulder-length hair. The officers checked the area for the vehicle but could not find it.
Meanwhile, Officers Chris Desmond and Rob Angelo responded to a call of a car off the road at Essex Street and Grandview Avenue, where they reportedly saw a red Ford Contour with front-end damage that was up on the curb and partially on the grass, with the passenger-side door open. According to Angelo, the woman in the vehicle, identified as Sandra Bean, 40, of Glenburn, smelled of alcohol, and the officer saw an open bottle of hard lemonade in the car’s cup holder.
Angelo said he approached Bean, who was crying. The officer reported that she did not want to admit she had been drinking and driving or had caused the accidents because she would “lose her job.” Eventually she admitted she had been driving, and she also complained of a sharp stomach pain, but could not say whether it was caused by the accident, police said.
Bean was transported to Eastern Maine Medical Center, where a blood sample was taken to be analyzed for alcohol content. She was charged with operating under the influence and leaving the scene of a personal-injury accident.
Neighbors of a Hermon man who was having a bonfire at his residence on Bogg Road on Sunday evening reported hearing explosions, but when Hermon firefighters arrived at the scene they saw no evidence of any explosions, according to a Penobscot County sheriff’s official. The bonfire was legal, as it was held in a fire pit on the man’s property.
