“But that could be nothing,” the representative said.

His staff is aiding police in the investigation, he said. “My staff is very good about keeping phone logs of everyone who calls ... 99 percent of the people coming into my office are happy. Most of the people who get upset, get upset over something I can’t help them with, issues beyond the scope of my abilities.”

One of the disgruntled constituents he told police about was upset over a sewage issue in the borough, and the other was complaining about an issue with the state Department of Environmental Protection, Belfanti said. “Who knows? It’s so crazy and ridiculous, you don’t know what to think ... It’s scary too. I don’t know where the person’s coming from, what the issue is. If there is an issue.”

The Mount Carmel office is the representative’s main office, open six days a week with three full-time employees. He plans to open another office in the borough as soon as he finds a location.

He also has offices in Danville, Shamokin and Harrisburg.

“I will find an office somewhere else in Mount Carmel and try and divert as much to my staff in Harrisburg till we get stuff moved in (to a new office),” he said.
