VERGENNES — Vergennes police recently arrested and lodged one man on domestic assault and other charges and cited and released another man for aggravated domestic assault.

On Nov. 29, police arrested Raymond White, 35, of Vergennes, for incidents stemming back to Nov. 20 and 21 at his First Street home.
