South Kingstown Man Arrested for Superior Court Warrant

Ryan J. Marshall, 24, of 575 Saugatucket Road, South Kingstown, was arrested at about 10:45 a.m. on Oct. 16. Police said a Superior Court bench warrant was out for Marshall’s arrest.

According to police, they were aware of the warrant and went to Marshall’s home, where he was arrested without incident. He was transported to Washington County Superior Court for arraignment at about 1:15 p.m.

According to online records, Marshall is due in Washington County Superior Court on Nov. 5 and Nov. 14 for pre-trial conferences for a South Kingstown police charge of felony domestic assault. The charge was elevated from misdemeanor domestic assault because it is allegedly Marshall’s third offense.
