Community members gathered in front of the Bristol Police Station Saturday night in memory of fallen officers Lt. Dustin Demonte and Sgt. Alex Hamzy.
One month after the fatal shooting on Redstone Hill, dozens paid their respects, holding blue glow sticks and laying flowers
“We wanted to show our love and support for the Bristol Police Department,” said Jamie Perchiano, “and for our two fallen heroes.”
Perchiano, a Bristol resident, organized the vigil for Lt. Demonte and Sgt. Hamzy.
Travelers from as far as Springfield Massachusetts gathered in silent prayer or shared memories of the fallen officers.
All TBE readers, supporters and donors
The Bristol Edition will be limiting the number of stories non-members and free readers may access each week. This decision is based on our financial projections and, most certainly, to remind people that TBE is serious about providing accurate, timely and thorough reporting for Bristol. To do this we have devised a financial support structure that makes unlimited access extremely affordable, beginning with a $6 monthly donation.
- Non-members will be able to access eight (8) articles per week.
- Free readers and people who have subscribed by email will be able to access eight (8) articles per week.
- Donors and financial supporters will have unlimited access as long as they log in.
Note: Donors may have to contact TBE if they find they are being limited, since we will need to set up a membership account for you. Email editor@bristoledition.org for instructions. Sorry for any inconvenience. People with financial difficulties may write editor@bristoledition.org to be considered for free access.
