BETHEL, Vt. — Bethel Volunteer Fire Department chief David Aldrighetti said he’s dealing with a tough situation.
"[I’m] stressed out. You know, this is something that it’s harder to deal with than when you have a major fire because it’s personal,” Aldrighetti said.
The fire chief needs to figure out how to move forward after 66-year-old veteran firefighter James Hart responded to a serious motorcycle accident while intoxicated. “He was driving his personal vehicle ... he lives probably a mile down the road and he drove it up. The hard part for us is Jim is a really good guy, he’s served his community for so many years, and he made a mistake,” Aldrighetti said.
