for treatment. Officer McMahon spoke with Mike Martinez who was making a delivery to Chairo's Carpet on
Clifton Avenue. Martinez stated he saw a black male shortly before the officers arrived run up Oneil,s Court
and then south on Clifton Avenue. Martinez said this male then crossed over to the northbound side of
Clifton Avenue near the Russian Orthodox Church and he did not see where he went next. Oneil's Court is
located directly behind 8 Cook Street. Martinez said this male was wearing a blue tee shirt, blue jeans
and
had shades of gray hair on the sides of his head. Martinez was unable to determine an approximate age for
this individual. Officer McMahon also spoke with area residents Shante Rivas and Andrew Vagasky who
stated they did not see anything. Another neighbor said that about 30 minutes before police arrived he saw
a black male walking eastbound on Cook Street towards 8 Cook Street. The neighbor said it was one of the
Maynard brothers but he was not sure which one. A few minutes later Tyrone Maynard was on scene and
the neighbor said he was not the one he saw earlier.

3)That on 07/02/09 Officer McMahon went back and spoke with the neighbor again. Officer McMahon asked
him again what he had seen yesterday. The neighbor said he saw Keith Maynard walking down Cook
Street towards his residence about 30 minutes before the police arrived. He said he was wearing a gray
shirt and blue jeans. The neighbor was inside his house and was looking out his window when he
supposedly saw Maynard. Officer McMahon asked, "how do you know now that it was Keith," and he said,
"because I it wasn't Tyrone." The neighbor did not see if Maynard had exited from a vehicle.

4)That on 07/O1lO9, at the hospital, lda-Marie told Officer Landona that she left the house at approximately
09:00 hours and returned home at approximately 1 1:00 hours and when she went through the front door
she was attacked by some one that was in the house hiding behind the front door. lda-Marie signed a

locks with a deadbolt which is engaged with a key from the outside and a turn latch on the inside. Maynard
said that the rear sliding door should have been locked however they had been in the back grilling the night
before and it may not have been locked. Maynard further said that he left the house at about 7:00 AM to go
to work in Westport so lda would have had to lock the door when she left after him. Maynard said he was
working in Westport and did not return to the house until lda called him about the assault. Maynard stated
that lda had a set routine of going to the gym everyday from 9:00 AM to 1 1:00 AM since the beginning of
summer. Maynard said that neither of them was having any problems with former boyfriends or girlfriends
and that he was not having a problem with anyone in the neighborhood. Maynard stated the only person he
had a probtem with recently *"rf.
Maynard had allowed-to
park a car on his property
and when ne totdJto move the ciioff the property he found one of his cars had been scratched.
Maynard said the incident occurred a few months ago.

6)That on July 2,20A9 at 10:52 hours lda-Marie came into police headquarters and gave Officer Landona a
signed written statement which stated ," On July 1, 2009 at approximately. 09:00 AM I left my house and
went to the Peak Fitness Gym in Seymour to work out. lt was approximately. 11:00 AM when I returned
home from the gym. When I returned home I parked my car in the driveway and I went to the mailbox to
check the mail. When I got the mail I quickly looked through it and then I walked up the stairs and unlocked
the front door. As I walked through the door I saw a hand pass in front of me and slam the door closed.
This person came out from behind the front door. I only saw the person for a quick second and I noticed
that he had some type of dark colored bandana and he was wearing it some where on his head or face. At
this point he grabbed me and tackled me to the ground and then flipped me over onto my stomach. While
we were on the ground I tried to resist and was fighting back and he grabbed a blanket and covered me with
it. I started to tell him that I had money and jewelry in the house and he could have it if he would jusi leave
me alone. During the incident this person never said a word to me. While I was fighting with him he
pinched my nose and tried to stuff part of the blanket in my mouth. I tried to hold my breath to let him think I
passed out and after a few seconds he began to release the pressure from my nose. As he was letting go I
gasped for air and he grabbed a bat and he hit me in the back of the head. lt was at this point when I heard
the front door lock. At this point I kept fighting and trying to get away but, he kept hitting me with the bat.
During the struggle I was able to reach out and unlock the front door. When I unlocked the door he grabbed
me and tried to pull me away from the door. While he was pulling me away from the door I was able to

While I was going out the door I heard him run towards the back of the house. The only description that I

saw was that he was wearing tan colored work boots and I think blue jeans. "

7)That based on information in conjunction with the neighborhood resident, who is familiar with Keith
Maynard, reporting that they saw Maynard walking towards 8 Cook Street a 112 hour prior to the incident
and Maynard advising Det. Sgt Lynch that he was working in Westport at the time of the incident led to the
application of an exparte order to examine the cell phone records of Keith Maynard. The exparte order was
granted for Maynard's celt pnon",f!,
and on Tlgologthe records were received by this
department. The records were for 711109 and included cell phone tower locations, this would show an
approximate area of where Maynard was when he senVreceived calls. lt should be noted that when
Lucarelli called Maynard within minutes after the assault to tell him she was assaulted, the call showed
Maynard's phone was in close proximity to a cell phone tower located on Minerva St in Derby. This is
inconsistent with where Maynard told Det. Sgt Lynch he was, Westport, as his phone would have indicated
on a tower in that area.

8) That on On 8/13/09,Keith Maynard came voluntarily to the Ansonia Police Department for a follow up
interview. Maynard came to the station with the victim lda-Marie Lucarelli and her sister Jennifer l-ucarelli.
lda had moved out of Maynard's house a couple of days prior and they met at the station for the interview.
Det. Adcox and Det. Sgt. Lynch conducted the interview of Maynard by himself in the second floor
conference room. During the interview, amongst other things, the following information was obtained. lt was
explained to Maynard that the incident did not appear to be a burglary but a specific assault directed at lda
Lucarelli. They told Maynard that a neighbor reported that they saw Maynard 1/2 hour before the incident
walking down Cook St towards the house but he told Det. Sgt. Lynch that he had been in Westport.
Maynard's reply was that he was working as a DOT supervisor in Norwalk and that the DOT garage he is
assigned to is in Westport. Maynard told them that the first callfrom lda was to his personal cell phone
) and it was not answered because he had the phone charging in the truck cigarette lighter
and the phone was on vibrate instead of ring. Maynard said that the clerk from the garage then called him
on his work cell phone asking him if he was avoiding lda because lda called the garage and
was hysterical. Maynard again denied having any problems with his neighbors and did not think any of the
