Police: Portsmouth man inhaled from whipped cream containers

Posted

PORTSMOUTH — Here are some highlights from the Portsmouth police log from over the past week.

Wednesday, March 18

Kasandra C. Vandenbergh, 24, of 149 Bristol Ferry Road, was charged with driving while intoxicated (first offense) and refusal to submit to a chemical test. Police responded shortly after midnight to a report of a fight in progress at the Island Tap bar on Park Avenue. While en route, they learned that the parties in question had left in two separate vehicles and were headed south on Park Avenue toward East Main Road. Ms. Vandenbergh’s vehicle was stopped on Bristol Ferry Road after it was seen crossing over the travel lane, according to police.

Police received separate reports from two residents who said their Social Security numbers had been used with the Internal Revenue Service to file a fraudulent return for fiscal year 2014.

Daniel Annunziata, 31, of 510 Child St., Warren, was arrested on a bench warrant issued by Sixth District Family Court. Mr. Annunziata was a passenger in a car that was pulled over on West Main Road at about 12:30 p.m. because its inspection sticker had expired, police said.

Friday, March 20

Joseph W. McGee, 49, of 74 Willow Lane, was arrested on a bench warrant issued by Second District Court. Police made the arrest at Mr. McGee’s home at 9:27 p.m.

Joshua Sousa, 22, of 76 Summit Road, was charged with possession of a controlled substance at 9:41 p.m. Police made the arrest after stopping Mr. Sousa’s car on Chase Road because its rear taillights weren’t working. Police said they found mushrooms and marijuana in the car. A 20-year-old passenger, Dylan J. Miranda of 111 Covel St., Apt. 3, Fall River, was charged with underage possession of alcohol, which police said was also found in the car.

Saturday, March 21

Neal A. Rancourt, 49, of 14 Point Road, was charged with domestic assault, domestic disorderly conduct, domestic vandalism with malicious injury to property and domestic refusal to relinquish a telephone. The arrest was made after police went to Mr. Rancourt’s home at 1:24 a.m. to investigate a report of a female screaming for help.

Zachary W. McGaw, 29, of 1156 Anthony Road, was charged with shoplifting at Clements’ Marketplace after video surveillance footage from March 13 revealed he had opened six canisters of Reddi-wip whipped cream and inhaled some of the contents, according to police. A female with Mr. McGaw appeared to act as a “lookout,” police said. The containers were then discarded in the store by Mr. McGaw and the duo proceeded to checkout, where they purchased multiple items, police said. Mr. McGaw used his own Clements’ card, according to police. A warrant was put out for Mr. McGaw’s arrest and police found him at his home shortly after 8 p.m. on Saturday. According to police, Mr. McGaw was “huffing” from the canisters— inhaling the containers’ nitrous oxide — which can give the user a quick high.

Eileen L. Walker, 52, of 144 Sprague St., was charged at 8:28 p.m. with driving while intoxicated (first offense) and refusal to submit to a chemical test. Police stopped her car on East Main Road near Sea Meadow Drive after receiving a report of a possible drunken driver. An empty bottle of 100-proof vodka was found in the car, according to police.

Bryan Medeiros, 37 of 225 Willow Lane, was charged with domestic assault and domestic vandalism with malicious injury to property at 9:47 p.m. in connection with an incident at his home earlier that evening.

Monday, March 23

Seth M. Kendrick, 31, of 19 Clement St., Apr. 1W, Tiverton, was charged with driving while intoxicated (first offense) and refusal to submit to a chemical test. Police stopped Mr. Kendrick’s vehicle on Route 24 northbound near Cedar Island at about 1:30 a.m. because its left taillight was not working.
