2nd charged in Conn. beer thefts preceding rampage
ENFIELD, Conn. — Police in Connecticut have charged a second person in connection with the theft of beer from a company where a worker killed eight people and himself two weeks ago.
Thirty-three-year-old Sean Quail, of Enfield, was charged Monday with misdemeanor larceny and conspiracy. He posted bail and is to appear in Enfield Superior Court on Aug. 31.
Quail’s wife, 33-year-old Christy Quail, was arrested on similar charges Aug. 6.
Authorities say Christy Quail was caught on video accepting stolen beer from Omar Thornton, a driver for Hartford Distributors who shot eight people to death, wounded two others and killed himself at the company’s Manchester headquarters on Aug. 3.
The Quails didn’t immediately return a message left at their home Tuesday morning.
