A North Naples man was arrested Friday and is awaiting extradition to Connecticut after authorities there say that in late January he assaulted a 78-year-old man who later died of a head injury.
Collier County sheriff’s deputies arrested William Paul Lindemann, 47, in the parking lot of his home at 425 Dockside Drive, No. 406, down the road from the Pelican Isle Yacht Club in North Naples. He was arrested on a Connecticut warrant for simple assault on a victim 60 or older, a first-degree felony.
"We’ll be meeting with prosecutors to determine if there will be an upgrade in charges," said Capt. Richard Conklin of the Stamford Police Department. Police are treating the case as a homicide.
Conklin said that on Jan. 27, Lindemann assaulted 78-year-old Herbert Davison outside a Stamford restaurant. Davison suffered head injuries as a result, and was transported to a local hospital where he died on Sunday.
An arrest report lists Lindemann as 6 feet 2 inches tall and 200 pounds. Records also show that Lindemann has a home in Greenwich, Conn.........

Barrels posted,"Thank goodness they got this monster!"
Thank Goodness posted,"Thank goodness the attacker was caught. And shame on all the people who, when the crime was first reported, suggested it was "some old drunk" who caused trouble and deserved to be killed. This was a beautiful community member, active in his church, and a beloved father, and grandfather. How tragic he did not get to live out his golden years enjoying the company of his family and his friends. I hope he did not suffer."
King Kong posted,"William Lindemann is an animal. Lock him up forever. Kids, this is why you should not resort to violence. YOU'LL GO TO JAIL AND BE LOCKED UP LIKE A BAD CHIMP!'
Veronica Jones posted,"I am very sad about Herb's demise. He did not deserve this and he was a good man. My prayers go out to all his family and friends. i will miss you herb at curley's. rest for now."
Joshua H posted,"Herbert Davison was a real mentch. A person with love in his heart and compassion in his deeds. A dedicated & loving husband and father he was adored and cherished by his grandchildren. I met him and had the pleasure of him reciting to me his brilliant poem "my soul knows things" I think Herbert was both very spiritual and also a down to earth man. Who while seeking the ethereal and the soul of life he "knew" it to be a sacred mission to reach out to others and live a life of sharing and caring.How a person 6 feet two inches could strike with such brutality a gentle loving man of 79 years is a very hard fact to accept.To Herbert's family and friends, only the "One Above" has the answers and we will miss Mr. Davison a whole lot.May his memory be a blessing to all humanity."
Senator Johnson posted,"It's about time that CT enact capital punishment for this criminal. Too many times crimes go unpunished with our judicial system making a mockery of the law. The death penatly will keep these scum bags in line and will keep them off the taxpayer dime for the next 40 - 50 years."
Funeral services for Stamford poet Herbert Davision will be private

My Soul Knows Things
By Herbert Davison
"At the end of your voyage, of your Stygian ride
Heed not the ebb tides with the death of the light -
dark rises shadows in the pond of the dead -
Of people like us, loved ones whom you left behind,
Lest you torture yourself those long days and restless nights.
But in the full moon, when the earth swims in static,
On those Tuesday nights when our club is alive,
Climb to the granite hills and look up to the sky.
In every star is the face of a poet,
In each breath of the wind is a poem.
Within our hearts there is sorrow,
Within our minds there is a word of wonder.
Even when you don't hear our electric comments to celebrate the spirits as we orbit,
The simple in life, our passion for poetry - to which you gave your life,
I know you are sure we speak of you as though you never left us,
Because your 'soul knows things,' like mine."

Do not stand at my grave and weep
Mary Frye
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!
