ST. GEORGE — A Hinesburg man was arrested on Dec. 21 after a series of incidents that included stalking, aggravated assault, and other violations, according to Vermont State Police.

He was processed at the Williston State Police barracks and subsequently taken to the Northwest State Regional Correctional Facility.

Robar was held without bail and is due to appear in Chittenden County Superior Court.

The Vermont State Police have not released the names of the victims, adhering to policies regarding incidents of sexual assault or domestic violence.
