A man faces assault and battery charges after his girlfriend was found dead at a Stow home Friday afternoon, according to authorities.
Shane Curry, 20, was living with Neveah Goddard, his 17-year-old girlfriend at a Great Road home, police said, when officers responded to a wellness check around 4:30 p.m. Friday.
Answering the door, Curry tried to keep the officers from entering the house for about two hours, according to a statement by the Middlesex District Attorney.
Officers were able to eventually get inside the residence, finding Goddard dead.
Deeming the death to be suspicious, officers arrested Curry, charging him with assault and battery on a household or family member and assault and battery causing serious bodily injury.
He was transported to an area hospital for evaluation following the arrest, said the statement.
Curry was arraigned for the charges Monday at the Concord District Court, according to a spokesperson for the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office.
He was held without bail and will be back in court for a dangerousness hearing April 17, the spokesperson said.
The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner will perform an autopsy on Goddard to determine the cause of death.
The Middlesex District Attorney’s Office, Stow police and Massachusetts State Police detectives assigned to the District Attorney’s Office are investigating.
