Welcome from the President: Anthony Notaro
June 13th, 2011 Posted in 1st Precinct NewsI want to welcome everyone who lives and works in the First Precinct. Our community is diverse and vibrant and experiencing tremendous growth. With that comes challenges as our neighborhoods become more residential and some become true 24/7. The First Precinct has addressed those challenges and worked hard to improve the quality of life and public safety.
The First Precinct Community Council is our vehicle for working directly with the men and women of our precinct and provides a monthly dialogue with our Commanding Officer and his Team. We can achieve real results for our whole community but it’s up to you participate. Please join us at our monthly meetings. It’s important to hear from everyone about what’s working and what needs our attention. I look forward to seeing you.

NY1 STORY:
At 12:30 p.m. Thursday, President Barak Obama’s limousine pulled up to the 1st precinct stationhouse in TriBeCa, just blocks from the World Trade center site. Once inside, there was a strong show of the support from the New York City Police Department.
Officers proudly showed off where the commander-in chief signed into the stationhouse’s log book, with his name and “God Bless.” “On a personal level, it was an honor to meet with him, to say thank you and shake his hand,” said Lieutenant Franco Barberio of Emergency Services.

LOWER MANHATTAN — On May 7 of last year, the 911 call came in: A woman was lying unconscious on the floor of a Spring Street apartment.
Police Officer Lawrence Sanzari, with the 1st Precinct, rushed to the scene and found that the woman had no pulse and was not breathing. She was cold to the touch.
Sanzari immediately started CPR, and soon the woman’s heart began to beat and she started breathing faintly. A few minutes later, her pulse and breath stopped again, and Sanzari again revived her with CPR, keeping her alive until an ambulance arrived. She was transported to the hospital conscious and in stable condition.
Sanzari was just one of several dozen 1st Precinct police officers to receive a plaque and a standing ovation this week at a recognition ceremony in Battery Park City.

“It shows them that their work is not unappreciated,” said Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, who attended the reception afterward at the Museum of Jewish Heritage. “We are aware of it.”
