Two men were stranded on a second-floor deck because there weren’t any stairs Yuanidis’s “heart was pounding” and the “adrenaline kicked in” as he secured a 12-foot ladder from a neighbour.

The 16-year veteran of the service “punched out the spindles of the railing” with his fists in order to save the 85-year-old. Sugy Kodeeswaran, a family member, later commented on the tragedy “Our family owes officer Alex a great debt because he saved the patriarch of the family with three children, their partners and eight grandchildren.” Yuanidis was honoured with the prestigious award for his “calculated risk, acting decisively and bravely, while putting his personal safety at risk in order to save others.” “It’s a huge honour,” said Yuanidis, who was quick to point out his fellow officers perform acts of heroism on a daily basis in the city.

PAUL, Minn. - A St. Paul police officer's quick actions saved the lives of four young girls. Officer Bill Beaudette was patrolling the city's east side on Thursday when he saw smoke and called 911. He followed the smoke to a home on Case Avenue, where he learned there might be children inside the home. "I was trying to wait for the fire department," Beaudette said. "I couldn't, because it was starting to fill with smoke." The veteran officer said that experience told him he needed to act. "I've seen bad things," he said. "You just put your safety in the back and go." Beaudette recalled kicking in the home's back door and finding four girls in the home, their ages ranging for 4 years old to 7 years old. One of the girls was sleeping. CBS "When the door got kicked in they were frightened," Beaudette said. "I calmed them down, and I had to get them out because the smoke started filling in pretty good. And we got out." The officer's actions were life-saving and heroic, said Deputy St. Paul Fire Chief Ken Adams. He explained that a fire can double in size every 30 seconds, adding that after 2 minutes and 30 seconds, a room can be deadly. "One of the things that we know about young children and fires is that they become scared," Adams said. "And when they become scared, they don't go out, they hide. When they hide, it takes us longer to find them." Beaudette says he was in the right place at the right time. "I don't know what would have happened if that door would have stayed closed," he said. "I'm just glad they got out, and I'm glad I was here." Beaudette has served the St. Paul Police Department for 29 years. He is the most senior officer in the city. Beaudette was present when the girls were reunited with family.

Please enter email address to continue Please enter valid email address to continue AP - New Haven, Connecticut, has agreed to a $45 million settlement with Randy Cox, who was paralyzed while being transported handcuffed and without a seat belt in the back of a police van following his arrest last year, the city’s mayor and attorneys said agreement was reached Friday evening following a daylong conference with a federal magistrate judge, Mayor Justin Elicker said. It came two days after the city fired two police officers who authorities said treated Cox recklessly and without compassion.“The city’s mistakes have been well documented,” a statement by attorneys Ben Crump, Louis Rubano and Weber, who represented Cox, said. “But today is a moment to look to the future, so New Haven residents can have confidence in their city and their police department.”Cox, 36, was left paralyzed from the chest down June 19, 2022, when the police van he was riding in braked hard, sending him head-first into a metal partition while his hands were cuffed behind his back. Cox had been arrested on charges of threatening a woman with a gun, which were later dismissed.“I can’t move. I’m going to die like this. Please, please, please help me,” Cox said minutes after the crash, according to police at the police station, officers mocked Cox and accused him of being drunk and faking his injuries, according to surveillance and body-worn camera footage. Officers dragged Cox by his feet out of the van and placed him in a holding cell prior to his eventual transfer to a Some may find the content in the video The officers were fired for what authorities called their reckless actions and lack of compassion toward the victim. WFSB, NEW HAVEN POLICE DEPT, CNNFive officers, including those who were fired, face criminal charges in the case. All have pleaded not last year sued the officers and the city for $100 million. His attorneys called the settlement the largest ever in a police misconduct did not plan to make any public comments over the weekend, Rubano said.“He kind of relived what happened to him throughout the day yesterday, so it was a very emotional day,” the attorney said by phone. “He’s unwinding now.”The case drew outrage from civil rights advocates like the NAACP, along with comparisons to the Freddie Gray case in Baltimore. Cox is Black, while all five officers who were arrested are Black or Hispanic. Gray, who also was Black, died in 2015 after he suffered a spinal injury while handcuffed and shackled in a city police Haven police have since adopted reforms that include making sure all prisoners wear seat belts. The state Senate on June 5 gave final approval to legislation that would require seat belts for all prisoners being transported.“Randy entered a police transport vehicle being able to walk, and now he’s not able to walk,” Elicker said at a news conference Saturday. He said he had spoken with Cox’s mother earlier in the day.“What I shared with her is that while this settlement cannot bring Randy back to his original state when he entered that police transport vehicle, that my hope is that it provides Randy the future medical support and other support that he will need,” Elicker said. “Randy’s 36 years old, and we hope he has a long life ahead of him with the kind of support and care that he deserves.”Copyright 2023 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. CNN — Imagine being a police officer responding to a call for a family trapped in a burning house fire, then realizing that the house is yours. Anthony Louie, a police officer in Oklahoma, lived through this nightmare. Louie was working a shift at the Seminole Police Department on Friday when he and another officer responded to a report of a fire at Louie’s home, Seminole Police Chief Jon Winters told CNN. Two of Louie’s sons, ages 7 and 14, were still inside, Winters said. Louie was able to rescue his children, but was badly burned in the process. “Upon entering the residence he had to run through the flame-engulfed porch and in doing so sustained serious burns and smoke inhalation injuries,” the Seminole Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 138 said on its Facebook page. Fortunately, the rest of Louie’s family wasn’t injured. The two sons he rescued were unscathed and Louie’s third child was at another family member’s home, Winters said. His wife, Lureena Louie, had just left the house to go to work. Louie remains in the hospital, where he is being treated for his injuries. In an updated post, Lodge 138 shared instructions on how to donate money to the family, which lost clothing and other household items in the fire. “The house isn’t completely burnt to the ground, but it is a total loss,” Winters said. “There’s smoke and water damage throughout the entire home.” Withers told CNN the cause of the fire isn’t known yet, but that the state fire marshal’s office is investigating. Seminole is located about 60 miles west of Oklahoma City. The city’s population is 7,041, according to the US Census Bureau. Withers said Louie’s family and the entire police department are touched by the sheer volume of donations and calls they’ve received. “It’s very overwhelming,” Wither said. “But it’s comforting to know, with the amount of support that we’ve received, that his family will be able to recover. I know he’s looking forward to coming back to work, and it’s nice to know that our community has our back.” The police department has been sharing updates of Louie’s health on its Facebook page. “We are so thankful that Officer Louie is ok after his heroic act of service. We never know what type of call we will respond to when we are on the job,” the department wrote in a Facebook post.
