Pompeani Walks

Associated Press

A former television news anchor who drew complaints of sexually harassing and threatening a hair salon manager won't be charged.

There was "insufficient evidence to sustain a conviction" against former KDKA-TV anchor Bruce Pompeani, Beaver County First Assistant District Attorney Anthony Berosh said yesterday.
Berosh declined to give details, saying only that the investigation is over and he was unaware of any other complaints against Pompeani.

Pompeani allegedly started to visit the salon almost weekly last year and made sexual advances and lewd comments toward its manager, according to a police report. The woman told police she was intimidated and didn't report the alleged harassment because Pompeani had threatened her. She eventually told her district manager, who called police.

Pompeani was fired in January. His attorney, Stephen Colafella, refused to comment and Pompeani did not return a message left at his home.
