A Newington man and probationary Hartford firefighter is accused of brandishing a gun during a road rage incident in Wethersfield Wednesday.
Connecticut State Police said 21-year-old Kyle Cataldo waved a gun at another driver on Route 3 in Wethersfield. Cataldo told police he showed the gun to stop another driver from harassing him.
Cataldo was arrested and charged with first-degree threatening and breach of peace.
Hartford Fire Chief Reginald Freeman confirmed that Cataldo was a probationary firefighter with the city. He resigned following the incident.
