Elm City residents honor NHPD sergeant
Hundreds of New Haven residents, in both uniform and plain clothes, lined George Street on Saturday morning to offer words of tribute and mourning in honor of the late Sgt. Dario “Scott” Aponte.
The procession led its way up to St. Michael’s Ukrainian Catholic Church — less than two miles away from the fatal accident that claimed Aponte’s life Tuesday night, and just blocks away from Yale-New Haven Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Aponte was 43.
