Police Power for Firemen is Urged in Connecticut

Hartford March 9. The idea of arming firemen with police authority to arrest in interagency matters was urged before the Judiciary committee. Assistant Chief George K Beardalee Bridgeport Fire Department testified in favor along with others though the bill drew little support. Proponents said immediate enforcement could follow if firemen could act in emergencies citing a theatre lobby car display incident where a bluffed arrest led to removal of the vehicle. A substitute draft might be prepared to retain essential aims without unwanted features. A separate bill would exempt regular and volunteer firemen from personal financial liability when using department vehicles during alarms, with county commissioners refunded sums paid under a prior law within 30 days after passage.
