Mario Devine will be honored with a Senator John Heinz Law Enforcement Award

Pitt Police Officer Mario Devine is among 18 area police officers to be honored Nov. 3 at the Senator John Heinz Law Enforcement Awards Luncheon. The annual event, hosted by the nonprofit Amen Corner, honors local law enforcement officers for heroic bravery and dedication above and beyond the call of duty.

Devine, who joined the Pitt Police in 2015, is being awarded an honorable mention for his off-duty rescue of a woman from the ledge of the Hulton Bridge in June.
