OC Police Officers Honored For Heroic Actions

OCEAN CITY -- The Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) this week announced several officers have been recognized with commendations for their actions during several serious incidents and arrests throughout 2012.

Each year, the OCPD meets to review the performance of its sworn personnel along with its civilian personnel and issues commendations and recognitions. This week, several officers were recognized for their actions in 2012.

Sgt. Dennis Eade was recognized with a Silver Star, awarded to any member of the OCPD who distinguishes himself or herself at the risk of their own lives. On Sept. 2, several citizens advised the OCPD of a fire in the rear of a crowded nightclub in the 18th Street area. When officers arrived at the rear of the establishment, they observed flames as high as 20 feet engulfing the business.
