On November 14, 2020 at approximately 7:20 pm Manchester Police responded to Bridge St for a report of a criminal threat. The female victim told police she was stopped at the intersection of Ashland and Bridge Streets when a Chevy Silvarado passed her on the left. The vehicle struck her side view mirror, so she followed it in order to get a license plate number.

The victim reported that the Silvarado pulled to the side of the road and a female passenger got out. The victim says the passenger started hitting and kicking her car and the male driver pointed a handgun at her.

Through their investigation, police identified and located 32 y/o Matthew Barker and 32 y/o Jaime Olson, both of Manchester. Olson was uncooperative and assaulted an officer and spit on another. She was arrested and charged with Simple Assault, Resisting Arrest, and Criminal Mischief. Barker was charged with Criminal Threatening and Conduct After an Accident.

Both Barker and Olson were scheduled for arraignment today.
