Four charges against Ambridge police Chief James Mann were dismissed or withdrawn during a preliminary hearing Wednesday, including two of four felonies filed against him.
Mann, 61, of Baden will head to trial in the spring on felony charges of threatening harm to influence the judicial process and witness intimidation, as well as a summary charge of harassment and retaliation and obstruction of justice — both misdemeanors.
One felony charge of insurance fraud was withdrawn, along with a misdemeanor count of false swearing. A judge dismissed a charge of felony theft by deception and a misdemeanor charge of official oppression.
Mann will be formally arraigned on the remaining charges Nov. 28. A trial date is set for March 4. His attorney, Stephen Colafella, could not immediately be reached for comment.
