Danbury Area Paramedic Stole Equipment: PD

TRUMBULL, CT — A Trumbull EMS employee who was only on the job for a short time was charged with stealing a $2,400 piece of equipment, police said.

Trumbull EMS officials reported the theft in February. George Previs, 32, of Milford had started shortly before the camera went missing as a paramedic.

Previs also worked as a paramedic in the Danbury-Newtown area and he used the camera during a call there, police said. The particular EMS service doesn't use that kind of equipment.

The camera was recovered at Previs' home, according to police. He claimed he accidentally brought it home.

Previs is charged with third-degree larceny.
