PORTSMOUTH — Here are some highlights from the Portsmouth police log over the past week
Nov. 8
Vehicles driven by Michael Richard of Middletown and Joyce Lincourt Sullivan of Portsmouth collided on East Main Road at McCorrie Lane at about 1:10 p.m. An officer had to separate the two drivers at one point because they were arguing about who was at fault, according to police. Both vehicles had to be towed from the scene. Ms. Sullivan said her shoulder was bothering her, but declined medical treatment at the scene. Mr. Richard complained of pain but also refused treatment.
A car driven by Mark Weeks of Somerset struck and killed a female deer that ran in front of his vehicle traveling north on Burma Road around 7:30 p.m. The car sustained heavy damage to its passenger fender and headlight assembly. The R.I Department of Environmental Management was notified about the animal carcass.

Liam J. Nary, 30, of 132 Greenfield Ave., Portsmouth, was charged with driving while intoxicated (first offense) and refusal to submit to a chemical test shortly after midnight. Police stopped Mr. Nary’s car on Anthony Road near the entrance to Common Fence Point because they said he ran a stop sign earlier.
