[HARTFORD, CT] – U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal released a statement today following the news that two Bristol Police officers were killed and another was injured in the line of duty Wednesday night.
“The deaths of Sergeant Dustin Demonte and Officer Alex Hamzy break our hearts and reinforce our deep and significant support for law enforcement as they brave countless dangers to protect public safety. Today is a tragic day and we must honor the sacrifice of both officers, as well as Officer Alec Iurato, who was seriously injured in the line of duty. These police heroes answered the call, as do countless other officers every hour, every day, never knowing fully what they may face. Our prayers are with the officers and their families as they navigate this incredibly difficult time,” Blumenthal said.
