NORTH READING — Chief Michael Murphy reports that the North Reading Police Department arrested a man after an investigation into the proliferation of child pornography.

  • Possession of Child Pornography
  • Distribution of Child Pornography
  • Possession of a Class B Substance (MDMA)

NEWPORT, Vermont — Lt. Travis Bingham reports that the Newport Police Department arrested a woman Monday night following a break-in.

JENNIFER FOSTER, 42, OF NEWPORT has been charged with:

  • Burglary
  • Resisting Arrest
  • Unlawful Mischief
  • False Reports to Law Enforcement
  • Disorderly Conduct

At approximately 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 30, police responded to a report from a Lake Road resident that a woman, later identified as FOSTER, had come to his door with blood on her hands. She allegedly left when the resident stated that he would be calling the police.

After an investigation, police learned that FOSTER had broken into another man’s West Main Street residence directly behind the reporting party’s home before she approached the reporting party’s door with injured hands, and had damaged various furniture, including a bedside table, door and shelves inside the West Main Street home. Police believe it was in damaging the furniture the woman sustained injuries to her hands.

After leaving the reporting party’s home, FOSTER returned to the victim’s home, where officers found her not long after arriving on West Main Street.

The resident of the home indicated that FOSTER did not have permission to be inside the home, and that he had not been home for several hours. Police confirmed that the man had not been in the area until very recently, although FOSTER claimed in a statement to police that the man had injured her hands and stolen her cellphone. Officers determined that information to be false.

When police began to place FOSTER under arrest, she resisted by throwing an object at an officer and initially refused to be handcuffed before officers successfully restrained her and took her into custody.

FOSTER is being held pending release to a responsible adult approved by the Orleans County District Court, and was scheduled to be arraigned at the court on Tuesday at 12:30 p.m.

These are allegations. All suspects are innocent until proven guilty.

SALEM — Deputy Chief Joel Dolan reports that a South Carolina man has been arrested by Salem Police today after he led officers on a pursuit in a stolen vehicle.

“I’d like to commend the officers who apprehended this individual after this situation became increasingly challenging,” Deputy Chief Dolan said. “Our officers displayed teamwork, bravery and perseverance, and as a result of their hard work, we were able to arrest a suspect today who posed a variety of threats to our community.”

DAQUHAN CROMER, 22, OF GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA has been charged with:

  • Reckless Conduct with a Deadly Weapon
  • Receiving Stolen Property
  • Possession of a Controlled Drug with Intent to Sell
  • Conduct After an Accident
  • Disobeying an Officer
  • Resisting Arrest or Detention
  • Driving after Suspension

At 8:52 a.m.,  a Salem Police Officer was alerted by a stolen vehicle tracking device on his cruiser that a 2010 Honda Accord that had been reported stolen out of Haverhill was possibly in the area. Upon investigation, police located the vehicle near the Park View Inn on Route 28.

When officers approached the vehicle, the driver, later identified as CROMER drove away and behind a building on the lawn, nearly striking an employee of the inn. He continued driving in the parking lot, striking a parked vehicle and two Salem Police Cruisers. One cruiser has been taken out of service for repairs following the crash, and the second sustained minor damage. The parked vehicle in the lot sustained minor damage.

Salem Police followed CROMER through several parking lots as well as Cole’s Trailer Park and then southbound on Route 28. After striking a third police cruiser, CROMER came to a stop on the lawn of the entrance to Tuscan Village at the intersection of South Broadway and Central Street, and fled on foot northbound on Route 28. The cruiser sustained minor damage.

After a brief foot chase, CROMER was taken into custody by the Salem Police Department. Officers located a large bag of suspected heroin and/or fentanyl in the middle of Route 28 directly after CROMER was taken into custody.

One Salem Police Officer sustained an injury to his knee during this incident.

CROMER will be held at Rockingham County Superior Court in Brentwood pending arraignment. He is scheduled to be arraigned tomorrow, Tuesday, Oct. 1.

During the vehicle and foot pursuit, Salem Police received information that a female passenger in the vehicle may have been a kidnapping victim, but investigating officers determined that was not the case.

No charges were filed against the female passenger.

Reports on social media also circulated on Monday morning reporting the sound of gunfire. At no point were any shots fired during this incident.

These are allegations. All suspects are innocent until proven guilty.
