On October 15, 2023, Westport Police took 59-year-old Robert Matturro into custody in connection with a domestic violence incident that transpired earlier in the year. Matturro, a resident of Greenwich, CT, now faces charges of first-degree criminal trespass and disorderly conduct.

The incident in question unfolded on the morning of May 9, 2023. According to the complainant, Matturro, identified as an ex-boyfriend, appeared uninvited at their residence. He allegedly began by banging on the front door and, upon receiving no response, proceeded to an unlocked back door through which he gained entry.

Once inside, the situation escalated. Despite the complainant’s repeated demands for him to depart, Matturro refused. An argument ensued, during which the complainant’s fear was heightened due to Matturro’s history of violence. Following the confrontation, Matturro left the premises, prompting the complainant to alert the authorities.

In the aftermath of the incident, Westport Police initiated a thorough investigation, eventually securing an arrest warrant for Matturro. The case progressed until October 15th, when Westport officers, responding to information from Greenwich Police Department, apprehended Matturro, who was being detained there.

Matturro was subsequently transported to Westport Police Department, where he was officially charged. After his arrest, he was released on a $1,000 bond. He is scheduled for a court appearance on October 16, 2023, at Stamford Superior Court to answer to the charges.

This case highlights the ongoing efforts by Westport Police to thoroughly investigate reports of domestic disturbances and ensure the safety and well-being of its residents. Their collaboration with other local law enforcement agencies, as demonstrated in Matturro’s arrest, is a testament to their dedication to upholding justice across jurisdictional lines.
