Ridgefield Police Officer Chris DiFalco honored as Police Officer of the Year

Last week, Ridgefield Officer Chris DiFalco was recognized as the Ridgefield Police Department’s 2017 Officer of the Year at the Leir Retreat Center. The Exchange Club of Ridgefield hosted the event as part of their “Salute to Connecticut’s Finest.”

A five-year member of the Department, DiFalco is deeply invested and committed to the Ridgefield community and exemplifies the motto "Service Above Self".  Spearheading Save a Suit for veterans at Dapper Den Barbershop in Ridgefield, conducting numerous car seat inspections and installations, and helping locals in need with his brainchild “Repair Because We Care” are just some of the ways DiFalco gives back to the community and wears his heart and his badge on his sleeve.

"Congratulations to Officer Chris DiFalco on this well deserved recognition and thank you to the Exchange Club of Ridgefield and the Leir Retreat Center for a wonderful evening," said Ridgefield Police.
