Man Charged With Assaulting Merrimack Woman

Merrimack Police arrested a 21-year-old man last week, charging him for allegedly forcing his way into Merrimack home and assaulting a female resident there.

Nicolas Loiselle, 21, with no fixed address, was charged with simple assault and two counts of criminal mischief. Police say they were called to a home in the Merrimack Meadows development after a man called 911 to report  a domestic disturbance in progress.

Upon arrival, officers spoke with several witnesses and determined that Loiselle had assaulted a female resident while attempting to gain entry into a residence. In doing so, he allegedly broke her eye glasses, and then kicked a hole in a bedroom door once he gained entry in to the residence.

Loiselle was arrested and released on $1,000 personal recognizance bail. He is scheduled to be arraigned in the 9^th Circuit Court, District Division in Merrimack on Tuesday, May 7.
