Man Arrested for Assaulting Victim with Pillow

A Connecticut man was arrested Sunday night after he was accused of assaulting someone with a pillow.

Westport resident Timothy Lester, 65, has been charged with third-degree assault in connection with the incident, which occurred after he got into an argument with an unidentified person in his home, police say. The spat escalated until Lester reportedly picked up a “heavy pillow” and hit the other person with it, according to his arrest report. The report notes Lester hit the victim “hard enough with the pillow to cause injury.”

Lester was released after posting $1,000 bond on Monday, court records reveal.
