Police say they have arrested a Harpswell man for allegedly violating his bail conditions, a few days after he was arrested for allegedly firing a handgun outside a Topsham woman’s home.
Christopher Williams, 41, was initially arrested on March 10 after police said he fired seven rounds from the driveway of a Meadow Road residence. He was arrested a short time later in Brunswick.
Williams was charged with reckless conduct with a dangerous weapon, discharging a firearm within 300 feet of a dwelling, obstructing the report of a crime, criminal mischief and operating under the influence.
Correcting a previous statement, Topsham Police Chief Marc Hagan said police have not determined what Williams was shooting at.
Williams was arrested again on Saturday on Bath Road in Brunswick shortly after 6 p.m. Hagan said Williams allegedly texted the Topsham woman, who he is not allowed to contact under his bail conditions.
Hagan said Williams is charged with violating his conditions of release, a Class C felony punishable by up to 5 years of incarceration and a $5,000 fine. He was taken to Two Bridges Regional Jail in Wiscasset. Bail was set at $1,500 at an arraignment Monday.
