The driver of a Mister Softee truck, allegedly fed up with the tactics of a Hartford neighborhood activist, (a frequent critic of the music coming from the truck's loudspeakers) is facing third-degree assault and breach of peace charges for attacking the activist with a baseball bat, city police said.

HARTFORD, Conn. - City lawyers have found themselves on the losing end of a legal battle with an ice-cream truck. A state judge determined that Hartford's noise ordinance, which City Hall used to hush a Mister Softee truck playing its music too loudly, is illegal. In a finding first reported Friday, State Superior Court Judge Raymond Norko said he learned that the city's five-year-old noise ordinance was invalid because it had never been approved by the state's Department of Environmental Protection, as state law requires.
