A city firefighter was arrested on child porn charges Wednesday, authorities said.
Scott Trivolis, 51, a 20-year veteran of the FDNY, was charged with promoting a sexual performance of a child and possessing a sexual performance by a child after he surrendered at the 120th Precinct stationhouse on Staten Island with his attorney at 12:45 p.m., cops said.
The NYPD’s Vice Enforcement Division arrested Trivolis after an investigation into child pornography, but it was not immediately revealed how many or what type of images he possessed, officials said.
His arraignment was pending Wednesday afternoon.
Trivolis, who has spent most of his career fighting fires in Manhattan, was hit with a maximum suspension of 30 days without pay, an FDNY spokesman said
