A Larksville firefighter who also works part time as an Edwardsville police officer faces misdemeanor charges after police say he tried to cover up a crash involving his friend.

[....]Larksville fire engineer Robert Palchanis told police that he was filling out an incident response report soon after arriving when Fronzoni approached him and instructed him “‘to not totally fill out the report,’” police say. Palchanis allegedly said he could smell alcohol on Fronzoni while speaking to him.

Courtdale Police Officer Greg Johnson said Fronzoni advised him that Ritsick was his friend and in the back seat of his truck. Fronzoni allegedly told Johnson not to run the vehicle’s registration information, as he’d be getting a roll-back truck to remove the damaged car from the scene.
