A Westport man faces multiple charges for allegedly breaking into a River Road home early Friday morning, and brandishing a hammer when the home’s sole occupant woke up.

Police were called to the home just before 3 a.m. Friday, Dec. 1 by the resident, who told police he got up to go to the bathroom just as a man later identified as John DeNadal, 53, of 21 Irene Drive, was trying to climb through the bathroom window. The resident told police that DeNadal brandished a hammer during their encounter.

DeNadal was arrested after police saw him walk out the home’s front door shortly after their arrival. He was charged with armed burglary, malicious destruction of property over $1,200, home invasion and assault with a dangerous weapon on a person over 60.
