Police: Homeless Man Arrested After Yelling, Swearing at Homeowner
|
A 61-year-old homeless man, Robert Houseworth, was arrested on a charge of interfering with an officer who was called to the scene Sunday afternoon when the man yelled and swore at a homeowner, police said. Darien police gave this account of the incident:
The man who complained to police on Sunday had put a piece of furniture in his driveway on the 2700 block of Post Road near the Stamford border. A sign saying “Free” was attached to the furniture. Houseworth — who gave a West Side Stamford address to police when later asked for his own address — came by sometime before 5:17 p.m. and asked if anything else in the driveway was also free. The homeowner said that none of it was, which made the homeless man irate.
