When Poughkeepsie, N.Y. police officer, John Falcone, responded to a domestic dispute call on Friday, February 18, 2011, the 18-year veteran of the Poughkeepsie City Police Department would end up giving his life to save a three-year-old kidnap victim. The child’s father was holding the three-year-old and waving a pistol when Officer Falcone arrived on the scene.
