PUTNAM — After a lengthy investigation, members of the Putnam Police Department, on Aug. 5, arrested Howard Williams III, 50, formerly of Putnam, and charged him with first-degree sexual assault and risk of injury to a minor.
The arrest warrant was issued after the Putnam Police Department Detective Division initiated an investigation into the reported sexual assault of a minor in August 2018. Williams III was located in Frostproof, Fla., taken into custody by Florida authorities, and held at the Polk County Correctional Facility until he was extradited back to Connecticut Aug. 5.
