Investigators said they found five shell casings near the councilman’s garage.
Berardinelli was arraigned by District Judge Joshua Kanalis on a host of charges including, aggravated assault, driving under the influence, and terroristic threats. He is being held at the Washington County jail on $75,000 bond.
