Erie Radio: Just-Fired WXKC PD Arrested By PA State Troopers

Vinny Marino
A just-fired Cumulus Program Director  was arrested after PA State Police say he hit another car and fled the scene, reports yourerie.com.

According to a report from Pennsylvania State Police-Erie (PSP), Vincent Marino, 55, had to be escorted by PSP last Tuesday from his job as Program Director for WXKC 99.9 FM at Cumulus Media on Tuesday after he was allegedly screaming obscenities and getting aggressive. According to the report, he was in the process of being fired.

After he left the building, the report from PSP states he put his car in reverse and backed up into another vehicle before putting the car in drive and fleeing State Troopers. He sped off for about two miles.

That is where State Police arrested him on the spot. 

He faces charges of fleeing or attempting to elude an officer, accidents involving damage or unattended property, harassment, disorderly conduct and multiple traffic violations.

Marino joined WXKC in Jan 2020 after departing Press Communications The Boss Radio in suburban Northern New Jersey.
