Stonington — Police charged a 50-year-old man with home invasion Sunday morning after they say he used a baseball bat to smash car windows at a Route 184 residence where his girlfriend is living. Another person living with the woman then took the baseball bat and struck him in the head.

Peter M. Crawn, who police described as homeless, was taken to the hospital for treatment after the 7:27 a.m. incident. He was expected to appear in New London Superior Court on Monday after he was charged with home invasion, breach of peace, first-degree criminal mischief and second-degree criminal mischief.

Police said the woman’s ex-boyfriend and another person were living at the house and Crawn, who was wielding a bat, had gone there to tell them to leave. After being struck in the head, police said Crawn drove off but was apprehended a short time later in the parking lot at the intersection of Routes 2 and 78.
