MILFORD, Conn.—A New York man has been charged with attempted murder after authorities said he tried to drown two young children at a Connecticut beach over the weekend.
Romney Desronvil, 41, of the Queens section of New York City, was arraigned Monday in Milford Superior Court, where a judge set bail at $2 million and ordered him to return to court on July 1. He was detained on charges of attempted murder, reckless endangerment, and risk of injury to children, a court clerk said.
