Officer Eric Scamporino

Life Saving Award

On December 12th, 2021 Officer Scamporino responded to the Shoprite on Fischer Blvd for a first aid call. Upon arrival, Officer Scamporino observed a store employee with a severe cut to his forearm. Mr. Balton was stocking shelves in the cleaning product aisle and was cutting boxes. The box slipped and he sliced his forearm with a box cutter.

Officer Scamporino replaced the belt tourniquet applied by other employees with his department issued tourniquet to stop the bleeding. Officer Scamporino is to be commended for his lifesaving actions.
