Groves

An individual who got into an altercation at Pine Fork Park last April now faces several charges after being indicted by a New Kent Grand Jury Monday morning in New Kent Circuit Court.

Haley Meila Groves, 26, of the 2700 block of Windsor Shades Lane, Providence Forge, was indicted on two counts of abduction, two counts of misdemeanor assault, and one count each of strangulation, robbery, assault on a law enforcement officer, malicious assault, attempted rape, felony destruction of property, misdemeanor providing a false ID to a police officer, and misdemeanor tampering with a vehicle.

Allegations stem from an Apr. 14 incident where a fight broke out at Pine Fork Park around 5 p.m. When deputies arrived, they found citizens detaining a possible suspect. The suspect, identified as Groves, was taken into custody. Indictments allege that Groves robbed the victim, stealing a ring, cell phone, and attempted to break into a Sedan.
