Heald is scheduled to return to court on July 1st. As reported, in a press release, state police spokesman Lt. Paul Vance said that troopers with the Eastern District Major Crime Squad arrested Heald, of Haven Avenue, Willimantic, by warrant Tuesday. The suspect was charged with third degree assault and risk of injury to a minor.
