SOUTH WINDSOR -- A 29-year-old man who had flown in from Australia to be the best man at his friend's wedding got himself arrested - twice - and ended up missing the wedding, police said.

Kersten Fernandes' problems began about 2:50 a.m. Saturday, when police said he and four others were highly intoxicated and began pounding on doors along Bourbon Street.

The group, members of the wedding party, was staying at a home on Bourbon Street but couldn't remember which one, South Windsor police Sgt. Scott Custer said.

"They were staying down the street at a home, the whole wedding party," Custer said Sunday. "Of course, being from Sydney, Australia, had no idea where he was."

During the door-pounding, the men got into a dispute with Peter Morlock, 47, of 174 Bourbon St., police said. When Morlock opened his door, he pointed what appeared to be a handgun at Fernandes and ordered him off his property, police said. As Fernandes and his friends retreated, Morlock followed them into the street, police said.

Morlock then placed the gun against the head and throat of another member of the wedding party who had been trying to get Fernandes away from Morlock, police said. Officers later arrested Morlock and seized what they described as a realistic looking pellet gun.

Fernandes was also arrested and charged with a single count of breach of peace for the incident, and his bail was set at $1,000.

While in custody in the police department's jail, dispatchers who monitor the facility with closed-circuit television said they saw Fernandes masturbating in his cell. A second count of breach of peace was added. Fernandes is due this morning in Superior Court in Manchester.

Although he was released on bail, he did not do so in time for the wedding.
