Police Arrest Man for Assault at Easton Party

Redding police officers arrested a Bridgeport man on an Easton warrant during a routine traffic stop on Route 58 on Oct. 13.

Ian Leslie, 21, of Brewster Street was charged with two counts of third-degree assault and one count of disorderly conduct and released on $1,000 bond for an Oct. 28 court date.

Easton police said Leslie was asked to leave a house party on Center Road in February and got into a fist fight with two 19-year-old Easton males.

One of the victims, who lives in the house, told police Leslie punched him in the mouth, giving him a bloody lip, and flipped him to the ground, injuring his left arm.
