Einstein Honors Fallen Philadelphia Police Officer

On June 6, 2008, Einstein dedicated the 35th District Police Room and unveiled a plaque honoring Ofc. Chuck Cassidy, who was assigned to the 35th District and shot when he walked in on a robbery last fall. Einstein is providing office space, a computer and other equipment in the Police Room. The satellite facility also will house the police bicycle unit. In attendance were city and state elected officials, Einstein doctors, nurses and Protective Services staff, and members of the Cassidy family.
