State prosecutors say a Crisfield man has been convicted of polluting state waters by abandoning a dilapidated and sinking boat in a tributary of the Chesapeake Bay.
According to state prosecutors, 56-year-old Gregory Sterling pleaded guilty to the charge in Somerset County District Court and was sentenced to 45 days in jail.
Prosecutors say the case against Sterling began when a homeowner reported a boat tied up at his dock without his permission.
