KINGSTON – The theft of copper wire, tools and a truck and trailer from a construction site in Kingston, police say, may be part of a coordinated crime spree that has resulted in multiple arrests.
A multi-agency investigation into the theft of copper wire that occurred at a large construction site in the south part of Kingston began Jan. 9 and resulted in the arrest of the three men and one woman Friday, April 2.
The Kingston Police allege that more than $150,000 of copper wire, thousands of dollars of tools, and a truck and trailer to transport the goods were stolen. They also allege that tens of thousands of dollars in damage was done to other property to identify and steal the property of value.

NAUGATUCK – James J. Miele, age 75, passed away on Wednesday March 3, 2021, at Saint Mary’s Hospital.
He was born in Naugatuck, Conn., on Dec. 30, 1945, son of the late Anthony Miele Sr. and the late Carmella (Palmieri) Miele.
Passion is not something that will eventually go away, it only burns brighter with age. The first thing Jim Miele does when his feet hit the floor every morning is to head off to the Naugatuck YMCA to shoot basketball. That’s pretty typical for a kid who loves the game of basketball, but hardly the norm for a 69 year old man. But as Miele says, “It’s in my blood.” Maybe he’s been spelling his name wrong all these years, and the name should be spelled Gym.
