New London Man Target of Home Invasion, Assault: Police

New London police responded to the area of the apartment complex at 163 Huntington St., at approximately 7:06 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 23, to investigate a report of a man assaulted by men with baseball bats.

Upon arrival, police located the victim, who had non-life threatening injuries to his face and body, according to a press release from New London Deputy Chief Peter Reichard.

The man declined medical treatment, police said. He reportedly knew all of the alleged attackers by name and eliminated the notion of a random attack.

He told police he was beaten on the face and body with baseball bats and a golf club.

During the investigation, police learned that the alleged attack and home invasion stemmed from a domestic-related arrest from the day before.

“The attack was retaliation from that incident,” Reichard wrote in the report.

Police followed up on the information from the prior arrest and located the three males allegedly responsible for the baseball bat and golf club attack.

The following people were arrested on charges of home invasion and assault in the second degree and issued a Sept. 23 arraignment:

• Jacky Dely, 26, of 195 Shaw St., #2, New London

• Billy Michel, 21, of 22 Center St., New London

• Alexis Yougans, 21, of 195 Shaw St., #2, New London

Anyone with information on the alleged attack is asked to call the New London Police Department at 860-447-5269.
