By Mark Reynolds JOHNSTON -- A 26-year-old Scituate man was arrested this morning and charged with dumping waste from Massachusetts at Rhode Island's Central Landfill, the authorities said. Frank J. Martinelli, of 56 Peeptoad Rd., Scituate, was arrested shortly after he and another worker arrived at the landfill's tipping station around 9 a.m. and began to toss garbage from Webster, Mass., said Police Chief Richard S. Tamburini. Martinelli continued dumping material after an inspector determined that the debris was from out-of-state and ordered him to stop, Tamburini said. As a result of the incident, the owner of Martinelli's company, David Spaziano, of Davinci Landscaping, has lost his privilege to dispose of waste at the landfill, Tamburini said. Martinelli was arraigned in District Court, Warwick, and is scheduled to appear Jan. 28 in Superior Court.
