RPD Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz honored in D.C.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — As National Police Week concludes, we’re hearing from members of the Rochester Emerald Society about their trip down to Washington D.C.

There, fallen Rochester Police Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz was honored at the National Peace Officers Memorial Service.

Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz is also being honored by his former colleague, Brett Sobieraski, who’s running marathons around the country in his honor.
