'Kind, Compassionate, Gentle:' Brookfield Hero Is A Danbury Cop

BROOKFIELD, CT — When times are tough, heroes emerge. We all know someone who's making a difference right now as we live through unprecedented and changing times.

Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize these heroes making a difference in their communities. Together with Ring, we’re working to let all your neighbors know about these outstanding people and their stories.

This submission comes from Kayla Campanaro who nominated Sean Gallaway of Brookfield.

Officer Gallaway is with the Danbury Police Department and "was kind compassionate gentle to a situation where my daughter was involved in a domestic dispute," Campanaro wrote in her nomination.

Thank you for all you do, Officer Gallaway!
