Owego's former mayor and fire chief--and another man--have been charged with harassment.
70-year-old Bill Franz, the village's former mayor and fire chief--and 68-year-old Andrew Hunt allegedly shoved and struck an unnamed person attempting to leave a parking lot following a village meeting earlier this month.
Tensions have been high since the village cut more than 100 firefighter positions.
Published reports say the unnamed person was another firefighter who supported the cuts.
