According to NJ.com, Officers Dewitt Bacon and John Walsh, along with local resident Joseph Dunbar, caught the child after they leapt from a second-story window of the Prospect Avenue house, authorities said. “Asbury Park police officers train for fast-moving, dangerous situations, and this rescue proves the value of that training,” said Police Director John B. Hayes. He praised all three for their bravery — and the child for their courage under pressure.

I’ve had my dream job of waking up with all the great listeners and members of Brookdale Public Radio since January 3, 2005. Prior to this job, I began my career in radio at NJ 101.5 FM as a producer. From there, I took time off from radio to do other things. (including becoming a mom!)
