Thomas C. Foley, the Republican gubernatorial front-runner who faces an Aug. 10 primary for his party's nomination in the November election, twice has been the subject of allegations — in 1981 and about 12 years later — that he either rammed another vehicle or ran one off the road.
Foley, 58, of Greenwich, acknowledged Thursday night that there had been two incidents resulting in arrests: one on a charge of attempted assault, the other on what he recalled as a misdemeanor breach of peace count in a domestic incident involving his former wife when they were involved in bitter divorce proceedings. He said both charges were dropped.
Foley called the incidents "unfortunate."
