12/22/23 Photo Essay- Sergeant Daniel P. DiDato
From my desk to Main Street and backroads: Photo Essays of East Fishkill
His loss marks the first officer fatality in East Fishkill's history.
If you’re not from East Fishkill- Sergeant Daniel P. DiDato was driving in his patrol car on the Taconic State Parkway when his vehicle ran off the highway and struck a tree.
He was heading to Westchester Medical Center to speak with a pedestrian who had been hit by a car near the East Fishkill police station. While on the parkway, Officer DiDato's vehicle got off the road and hit a tree. He was taken to Mid-Hudson Regional Hospital, but sadly, his injuries were fatal.
I’m taking the next few days to document the town I live in and document the support weaving through East Fishkill for Officer DiDato's family and the police department.
