Connecticut police say a man threw another man 45 feet off a
bridge because he intervened in an argument between the suspect and his
girlfriend.
Shelton police charged Gregory Rottjer
with attempted murder in connection with the Thanksgiving morning encounter
that left the victim seriously injured. He faces arraignment.
Rottjer’s friend Matthew Dorso was
charged with assault while Rottjer’s girlfriend, Jennifer Hannum, was charged
with lying to police.
Police say Rottjer and Hannum were
arguing as they walked across the bridge over the Housatonic river between
Derby and Shelton. The victim and his brother asked Hannum if she was OK, which
prompted Rottjer and Dorso to start a fight that ended with the victim in the
water.
It was unclear if the suspects had
lawyers.
