(Host) A convicted kidnapper suspected of assaulting a woman in Vermont has been arrested in New Hampshire after a five-day search.

Vermont State Police say 42-year-old Harley Breer of Calais was found at the home of an acquaintance in Tilton, N.H. Police say he was arrested on Monday without incident.

Police had issued an arrest warrant last week for Breer for violating the conditions of his parole after his 2009 release from prison for kidnapping his estranged girlfriend’s mother.

Authorities say Breer is now suspected of assaulting his girlfriend and later taking her vehicle without her consent. Police say he’s also been known to threaten law enforcement.

Breer waived his extradition rights in a New Hampshire court, and was waiting to be transported back to Vermont.
