Friday, May 6, Londonderry – Owners of a seasonal cabin on Rinehart Road told state police that when they arrived to open the place for the season, it had been broken into. The contents of the cabin had been riffled, but nothing had been stolen. Police walked around the cabin looking for evidence but found nothing. No date for the break-in could be established since the owners had not been at the cabin since the fall.

Sunday, May 8, Cavendish – At a little before 7 p.m., Vermont State Police responded to a 911 call at a Main Street, Cavendish address for a domestic assault. When they arrived, police saw a man running up the hill behind the house.  After a short foot pursuit, a 45-year-old Cavendish resident was arrested.  Police learned that the man had threatened his wife with a shovel, attempted to keep her from contacting police and avoided apprehension.  The man was on probation from a prior assault on law enforcement officers and a domestic assault.  He was released to the Department of Probation and Parole who then transported him to Southern State Correctional Facility in Springfield.
