Meet the People of PANYNJ
Congratulations to this year’s #PATH annual Holiday Poster Contest winners Khloey Lam of P.S. 25, Natalie Spiska of P.S 37 and Nathalia Acosta of P.S. 27. Khloey was selected as the grand prize winner and her poster, which depicts a peace symbol on a holiday wreath, will be displayed in PATH stations and rail cars while the other two winners’ posters will be displayed in PATH stations. The competition this year was intense: more than 500 holiday posters were submitted by Jersey City students. Today’s ceremony marks the 29th year that PATH and the Jersey City Board of Education’s Visual and Performing Arts Department have partnered to produce the poster contest. Swipe to see the festivities and the posters. Happy holidays! #PosterContestEight police officers from the Port Authority Police Department were honored with the New York’s Division of Criminal Justice Services' Lifesaving Award for their actions after a bomb was detonated in a subway corridor in close proximity to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in midtown Manhattan on December 11, 2017. Lt. Miriam Rubio, Sgt. Hector Martinez, Sgt. Victor Talamini, Officer Jack Collins, Officer Anthony Manfredini, Officer Drew Preston, Officer Sean Gallagher, and Officer Anthony Estevez each were presented with the award during a ceremony this afternoon at the bus terminal. The eight officers received the award from Michael C. Green, Executive Deputy Commissioner of the state Division of Criminal Justice Services, during the ceremony at the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan. Port Authority Police Department Chief of Operations Emilio Gonzalez also spoke at the ceremony. These officers were chosen from among the state’s 70,000 police officers to receive this award. #PAPD The following quotes came out of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s office announcing the award: "Amid chaos and panic, these eight officers fearlessly entered the blast area to help injured commuters and secure the suspect, bravely risking their own safety to protect the public" Governor Cuomo said. "It is an honor to recognize these officers for their heroic service that epitomizes the work of New York's first responders." Port Authority Executive Director Rick Cotton said, "Ensuring the safety and security of the traveling public is our top priority. These eight brave officers acted in the self-sacrificing tradition of the Port Authority Police Department, which lost 37 officers on September 11th. Vigilance and quick action are hallmarks of the agency's police officers, and today's recognition by the Governor and the state Division of Criminal Justice Services is a well-deserved tribute to the selfless actions of these officers." Port Authority Police Superintendent Edward Cetnar said, "These eight officers' swift actions demonstrated extraordinary bravery that resulted in no serious injuries and allowed the Port Authority Bus Terminal to be secured without further incident.Categories
