Loud Party Ends with Greenwich Neighbor's Arrest

Police say an argument ensued after a loud party disturbed neighbors.

Greenwich Police say a resident of a first-floor apartment perturbed by his upstairs neighbors’ partying and noise was arrested after he threatened the neighbors with a Taser, a knife and a golf club just after midnight Saturday.

According to police, residents of a second-floor apartment of a Hamilton Avenue house were hosting a party that was too boisterous for the liking of first-floor tenant Waiyat Hamdani, 22, of 307 Hamilton Ave. at about midnight Sept. 20. Hamdani “became so enraged that he had threatened individuals at the party with a knife, taser and a golf club. It was also learned that Hamdani had also broken a window at the residence, according to the report.

Hamdani was charged with third-degree criminal mischief, disorderly conduct and threatening. Hamdani didn’t have any of the weapons he claimed he had, otherwise he would’ve faced weapons charges, police said.
