Assaulted Man Leads Police to Drinking Party, Unconscious Woman

When a cab driver flagged police down Saturday night to alert them to a bloody passenger that had just got out of his car, it set in motion an investigation that led officers to a drinking party on Fairfield Beach Road and to a woman who was passed out in the snow, barely responsive.

Police located the bloody man in the parking garage downtown, near Firehouse Deli and the Fairfield University Bookstore. He told officers that he had been in a scuffle at a party on Fairfield Beach Road, but offered no further information and did not want to press charges, according to the police report.

The man, who police said appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, was transported to Bridgeport Hospital around 12:15 a.m. on Feb. 9.

The officers then traveled toward the beach, and reportedly found a loud and disruptive party in the house at 1027 Fairfield Beach Road. There were a lot of people in and around all three floors of the house, and empty beer cans and cups thrown throughout, police said.

The host, Alexander Case Cramer, 22, of Maryland, was charged with disorderly conduct.

As partygoers were being dispersed, the officers discovered a woman passed out in the snow. She was barely responsive, police said, and was taken to St. Vincent's Medical Center by ambulance.
