An unmarried couple from San Antonio, Tex., were arrested Saturday in Old Greenwich when a verbal tiff turned violent. The couple were visiting relatives with their infant son when an argument escalated. The mother, 29, attempted to take the son from the father, 30, and go back to Texas. The mother grabbed the father as he held their son, resulting in injuries to all three. Both parents were arrested on charges of disorderly conduct, though the mother was also charged with risk of injury to a minor. Both were released on promises to appear in court on Tuesday.

One man received a minor injury on his mouth. Both Alexander Mendez, 21, of 15 Beech St. and his 17 -year-old brother were arrested and released on promises to appear in court on Tuesday.
