Milford Police Arrest Log: July 17‑18, 2026

On the afternoon of July 17, 2026, Milford’s police department logged a handful of incidents that would later make it into the town’s weekly arrest summary. The first name on the list was a 35‑year‑old woman from nearby New Haven. According to the report, she was wanted on two counts of sixth‑degree larceny after allegedly shop‑lifting a total of $543 worth of merchandise from a Target store on two separate days in March. She was taken into custody, set a $5,000 bond, and is slated to appear in court on July 20.

Later that same day, a 54‑year‑old Milford resident found herself in the holding cell for disorderly conduct. Police say the incident stemmed from a heated argument that escalated into broken glass and thrown food. She was released on a promise to appear and will also sit before a judge on July 20.

The following morning, July 18, a 36‑year‑old Milford man was arrested for first‑degree criminal trespass after police responded to a complaint on New Haven Avenue. He had apparently ignored a previous ban from the property and was taken into custody without bond, with a court date set for August 14.

In a twist that reads almost like a bad sitcom, the same man was arrested again later that day for returning to the very same property after his earlier release. This time the charge was identical—first‑degree criminal trespass—but a modest $500 bond was applied, and he’s expected back in court on July 20.

All of the charges listed are allegations, not convictions, and the individuals remain innocent until proven otherwise. The Milford Police Department posted the full log on their website, and the Patch staff compiled the information for the community on July 21, 2026.
