Peekskill to Raise Money for Injured First Responder

A special fundraiser is being held Sunday September 12 to raise money for  former Peekskill Police Detective Charlie Wassil.

Wassil, like many police officers and firefighters from Westchester County, answered the call of duty and spent time at Ground Zero in New York City searching for possible survivors following the September 11 terrorist attacks.

As a result of his time spent at Ground Zero, Wassil, a U.S. Marine and former NYPD officer,was forced to retire from the Peekskill PD.
