A second Hollidaysburg firefighter has been charged with embezzling money from a federal grant program.
An indictment filed this week in U.S. District Court in JohnsÂtown accuses Anthony J. Dibona of Hollidaysburg, current chief of the Phoenix Volunteer Fire Department, of retaining $57,242 in grant funds for his own use and four related counts of filing false tax returns.
Court documents indicate that Dibona, represented by Federal Public Defender Christopher Brown, will render a guilty plea on March 26 before Judge Kim R. Gibson.
Dibona, when reached by phone Thursday, said he had been advised against making any statements at this time.
