Norwalk police announced Thursday that Norwalk's deputy Republican registrar was arrested in connection to a fatal shooting.
Police were called for a disturbance that involved a man and Ellen Wink in a Nelson Avenue home just before noon.
They found 54-year-old Kurt Lametta with multiple gunshot wounds inside the home and was pronounced dead at the scene.
