MOUNT CARMEL TOWNSHIP -- A former Mount Carmel Township police officer was found guilty on Monday of all offenses filed against him for leading police on a chase in Northumberland County.

Dave Stamets, 30, of Kulpmont was among four officers who were off-duty on Labor Day last year when they threw a firework at a Kulpmont officer's police cruiser.

They finally pulled over after a car chase.

Authorities said Stamets was also driving an unregistered vehicle at the time.

Stamets has to pay $330 in fines. He was fired from the police department back in November.
