Officials say a man from New York state was arrested after he used a tractor to damage a home. The incident comes after police say they responded to a call over a dispute Sunday afternoon.

The suspect is facing multiple felonies, including 1st degree criminal contempt.

According to the website for The Law Offices Stephen A. Bilkis & Associates, "the most common reason that defendants face a charge of criminal contempt in the first degree is related to violating an Order of Protection that was issued in relation to a domestic violence case. It is a Class E felony."
