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.
