Police arrested a 35-year-old Newark man on a number of felony contempt charges, as well as other counts following a disturbance on Parrish Street.
David Eldridge, 35, was charged with three counts of first-degree contempt, two counts of endangering the welfare of a child, and harassment after a disturbance call.
He’s accused of having contact with a person who was protected by a court order. The physical altercation was witnessed by two children under the age of 17, prompting the child endangerment charges.
The charges will be answered at a later date in local court.
