Man charged with assault, accused of headbutting relative

A Berkeley Road man is facing charges after police said he headbutted a relative Friday afternoon.

Timothy Graceski, 35, was charged with third-degree assault and disorderly conduct, when headbutted the relative in the face, causing contusions, according to the report. Graceski left the house and the victim called police.

Police contacted Graceski and asked him to return to the home, but he initially said he had no intention to talk with police. He did eventually return, though, and was taken into custody.

Graceski was released on a promise to have appeared Monday in Bridgeport Superior Court.
