" Explains, About
Kiska Incident
Chief William R. Pennington this
Inornlng vigordusly denied the sc-
cuoation of Sergeant Frank Virelli.

local authorities had failed to co-
operste with the state police in the
la liquor raids here Tuesday after-
noon. in the instance of the arrest
Louis Klska, 12 Benton street.
In a statement to an Evening Sen-
tinel reporter yesterday, Sergeant
\'irclll said that in the arrest of
Kiskc. the only instance in which
his men requested the assistance of
ill. local police, the Norwslk au-
thorities had failed. him. ‘
The state police officer stated that
when his men went to Kiska's homo
nt 12 Benton street. they were in-
formed by Mrs. Kiska that her hus-
band was at the police station where
he was trying to settle some trou-
ble in which he had been involved.
Htute Policeman Foley. who was
commanding this particular raiding
squad. phoned headquarters nd
told the police to hold Kicks, as
he had a bench warrant for his or-
rest. .
According to Sergeant Virelll's
statement. the local police agreed to
hold Kisku. but when State Police-
man Foley arrived, he had gone and
the police knew nothing of his
whereabouts. it is to this phase of
the incident as told by Sergeant Vi-
relli that Chief Pennington objects
most strongly.
According to both the chief and
Policeman John Smith. who was on
desk duty at the time. Kiska was
not under arrest at headquarters or
there to settle a dispute. but had
stopped in to bid his friends good
morning.
When state Policeman Foley tele-
phoned the officer to hold Risks for
him. .Klska was instructed to wait.

and buy a cigar. and although he
was not. there when Officer Foley sr-
