Wareham Police on Wednesday arrested the town's parks and cemetery foreman on charges of possession of child pornography and sexual conduct for a fee, stemming from an incident investigated by Dartmouth police in November.

Wareham interim Police Chief Kevin Walsh said Frank Bergamasco, 63, of 7 Elmwood St., was arrested without incident in the Municipal Maintenance garage parking lot at 1 p.m. Wednesday. Walsh said the department was executing a warrant Dartmouth Police had issued on Tuesday.

Bergamasco was arraigned on Wednesday and posted $2,500 bail on Thursday. A pre-trial date was set for June 6.

Town Administrator Derek Sullivan said Bergamasco has been placed on paid administrative leave but could not comment further on the matter.

Asked about the four-month gap between the November incident and Wednesday's arrest, Dartmouth Police Detective Kyle Costa said that cases of this nature are reviewed by the district attorney and, with a large backlog of cases, it could take some time to review.

The police report of the arrest was sealed and could not be viewed by court officials or the public and the investigation is being conducted by the Dartmouth Police Department.
