Jeffrey R. Vachon, 57, of Pembroke Road in Concord was arrested at 3:19 p.m. on Feb. 19 on stalking, criminal threatening, resisting arrest or detention, and breach of bail charges. According to an affidavit, police were sent to Pembroke Road for a report of Vachon being at a home he was not supposed to be at. A tenant in the building was told to call police if Vachon was seen at the home and he accused him of being on the property. Officers went over to another residence and spoke with a woman who denied Vachon was at the residence. Officers checked the residence and did not find him. The officers then went back to the complainant who provided security video footage showing Vachon arguing with the woman, according to an affidavit. The officers then returned to the woman's residence and looked around again. During the second search, they found trash and boxes inside a cupboard underneath a stairwell and also found Vachon, a report stated. The reporting officer accused Vachon of shouting at them so they drew their firearms and then, transitioned to Tasers, "to provide less lethal coverage." Vachon was ordered out of the cupboard and he complied but he refused to put his hands behind his back so he could be taken into custody, the affidavit stated. "Although I gave several loud verbal commands, Jeffrey refused to comply with them," the officer wrote. He was warned twice that he would be Tased if he didn't put his hands behind his back, the report said, and after being accused of ignoring the commands, the two officers both Tased Vachon. "The taser had little effect and Jeffrey continued to struggle," the report said. The officers continued to struggle with Vachon and eventually were able to get him into handcuffs. He refused to see a bail commissioner and was transported to the county jail.
