Brian Dodoro, a volunteer firefighter for the city and employee of the public works department, was charged with four counts of criminal sexual conduct in the first degree, four counts of criminal sexual conduct in the first degree and one count of criminal sexual conduct/assault in the first degree with intent to commit sexual penetration.
