A man accused of misusing thousands of dollars from disabled clients' funds in New Milford has been arrested.
Police said Jonathan Vicente, 37, was taken into custody on Sunday for first-degree larceny.

Vicente told officers that he didn't use clients' money for personal purchases, but investigators later determined that he spent over $20,000 between Jan. 2023 and Feb. 2024, respectively.
