Message from the Chief
Two of New Paltz's finest receive lifesaving award
On Friday May 9, 2008 New Paltz Police Officers Patrick Koch and Keith Lewis received the Ulster County Police Chief's Award in lifesaving from a call that occurred in December of 2007. Just three days before Christmas 2007 both officers responded to a local diner to assist EMS with a female who had collapsed. Arriving first on the scene, Koch and Lewis immediately determined the victim was in cardiac arrest and administered CPR. Both officers who are trained EMS First Responders then applied an automatic external defibrillator to the victim shocking her several times until her pulse was restored.
Koch and Lewis were two of ten police officers, from all over Ulster County, who were honored with Police Chief Awards on May 9, 2008 at the Hillside Manor Restaurant, an event attended to by well over 200 people.
