Greenwich Man Accused Of Assaulting, Strangling Victim, Cops Say

GREENWICH, CT — A 51-year-old Greenwich man was arrested on assault and strangulation charges Friday after a road-rage altercation in which the suspect allegedly choked the victim with the victim's coat, according to Greenwich Police.

Seth David Bladimirsquy, of Henry Street, was arrested at about 9:30 p.m. following a report of an assault on North Water Street in Byram. Bladimirsquy, a pedestrian, was almost struck by the victim's vehicle, and after the victim parked, Bladimirsquy approached him, police said.

"Further investigation revealed Bladimirsquy had pushed the victim against the building, grabbing him by his jacket in a way which restricted and impeded his breathing," wrote Greenwich police in a statement. "Due to the way that the victim was grabbed during this incident left red marks on his neck and a scratch on his arm."

Bladimirsquy was charged with second-degree strangulation, third-degree assault and disorderly conduct. He was held in lieu of bail of $1,000 and is scheduled to appear in Stamford Superior Court on April 5.
