Four Ridgewood police officers and one from Glen Rock received the Combat Cross valor award from their police chiefs at the Dec. 16 Village Council meeting
The officers – Ridgewood Sgt. Brian Pullman, Detective Peter Youngberg, Officer Rosario Vaccarella and Officer Raymond Tarino and Glen Rock Officer Murray Yang – were honored for their effective response while facing imminent threats to their life.
On Nov. 18, a disturbance call in Ridgewood became scary when a man in need of psychiatric help pulled a knife and attacked the officers, Ridgewood Police Chief John Ward said at the meeting.
“Our officers – with their quick reactions, their excellent training and their cooperative skills – subdued this party without injury to him and clearly in a situation where they would have been justified in using deadly force,” Ward said. “Their actions, their character are examples of the highest standards of law enforcement.
“They’re a testament to the caliber of our officers, the training they receive, and it underscores the dangers that these officers experience,” Ward said.
