Two people were arrested in New London yesterday following the report of a domestic disturbance involving a knife.
Police arrived at 70 West Coit Street around 3:30 p.m. Saturday to find a man bleeding from the arm and a woman holding what seemed to be a large kitchen knife, police said.
When officers confronted Marta Colon, 32, the man, Christopher Benites, also 32, became aggressive, and police used pepper spray to calm him down, authorities said.
Police arrested Colon and Benites, both of 70 West Coit Street. Colon was charged with second-degree assault and disorderly conduct, while Benites was charged with interfering with police.
