TOMS RIVER — An Ocean County grand jury today indicted a Brick man on vehicular homicide and assault charges related to a 2008 boating accident on the Metedeconk River that claimed the life of the pilot of a Boston Whaler and injured its passengers.
The grand jury, in an indictment handed up this afternoon, charged Anthony DiGilio with the vehicular homicide on Aug. 3, 2008 of Robert D. Post, 49, of Essex Fells, and two counts of assault by vessel alleging serious injuries to Post's widow, Bonnie, and a passenger, Joan I. Farren of St. Davids, Pa. The indictment alleges that DiGilio operated a vessel recklessly, causing Robert Post's death and the injuries to his widow and Farren. The document did not specify what constituted the alleged reckless behavior.
Authorities have said DiGilio's 27-foot speedboat ran over Post's 16-foot Boston Whaler on the Metedeconk, just north of Herring Island.
DiGilio's attorney, Joseph Tacopina, said arrangements were being made for his client to surrender and post $75,000 bail.
Until the indictment was handed up, no charges had been filed against DiGilio.
