Case continued for Shelton volunteer firefighter charged with arson

The wait continues for the Shelton firefighter charged with setting fire to a load of cardboard boxes in his pickup truck and then riding down the highway with burning debris flying onto the road. “Tortora told us that we should have seen him driving down Howe Avenue with the rear of his truck bed on fire,” Shelton Detective Richard Bango wrote in his affidavit. “He stated that other drivers were pulling beside him beeping their horns.” Superior Court Judge Frank Iannotti continued the six charges against William Tortora, who appeared in the Milford courtroom Monday, until April 25. Tortora is the brother of Shelton Fire Marshal James Tortora.
