NORTHBORO — A former Northboro police officer who admitted in Worcester Superior Court Monday to stealing more than $25,000 from the patrolman's union while he was president is facing a felony case in Leominster District Court.
Nathan W.S. Fiske Sr., 34, of 318 Holden St., Apt. 2, Holden, allegedly entered his ex-wife's Holden home through an unlocked door Sept. 12 and stole her checkbook, according to Paul Jarvey, a spokesman with the Worcester County District Attorney's office.
He is charged with breaking and entering in the daytime for a felony and larceny from a building. At his arraignment in Leominster District Court Nov. 15, bail was set at $500 cash bail. He is due back in court Jan. 13.
On Monday, after pleading guilty to larceny of more than $250 by a single scheme, he was placed on probation for three years, ordered to perform 1,000 hours of community service and pay $25,355 in restitution to the Northboro Police Patrolman's Union. He was also ordered to not apply for any law enforcement job.
Mr. Fiske, who was hired as a full-time police officer in 2007, allegedly stole the money between Dec. 17, 2009, and March 14 of this year while he was president of the patrolman's union. He resigned June 21 during a disciplinary hearing with selectmen over the misuse of union funds.
