The Village of Bronxville held a swearing-in and awards ceremony during its June 9 Board of Trustees meeting, recognizing new officers and awarding several officers for life-saving actions and notable investigations dating from late 2023 to late 2024.
The Village of Bronxville Board of Trustees reopened its June 9 meeting with a swearing-in ceremony and awards presented by the Bronxville Police Department.
Chief Satriale introduced new and promoted officers and highlighted an injured officer who could not continue duty after a December 2023 fall. "Paul was a valued member of the police department," the chief said, recognizing the officer’s community ties and years of service. Family members of the officers were invited forward as several were sworn in.
Lieutenant Nicholas DeYoung presented multiple awards, including a life‑saving award to Officer Nigel Butler and Detective Justin Sokol for their response on Dec. 24, 2024. "It is due to the quick action of both officers that the male is alive today," DeYoung said, describing use of an automated external defibrillator and CPR before medical personnel arrived. Other recognitions honored investigative work that led to arrests and recovery of stolen property, with officers credited for cross‑jurisdictional collaboration, video analysis and tracing phone and GPS records.
The ceremony concluded with photographs and brief remarks of thanks from village officials before the board moved to regular municipal business.
