In moments that Joshua Castillo was of visit in a hospital of Prince William (Virginia) he realized that a police officer was surprisingly attacked to blows by a man whom that one was trying to arrest. Then he did not think it two times and without doubting a moment, gave a pair of big strides and with a strong push it separated to the irate subject of the uniformed agent that little earlier had stumbled and fallen down to the apartment.
This rapid intervention determined that the official Charles Mottey could recover and stand up; moments later, the suspect managed to be arrested, then to be put in hands of the justice.
The courageous action of Castle happened on Tuesday, the 2nd of October 2008 and three months later it obtained the highest recognition of the Department of Police officer of the County of Prince William.
Last Tuesday, the 13th, in a special ceremony, the proper Chief of the Police of Prince William, Charlie T. Deane, delivered to Joshua Castillo the first Award to the Civil Value (Citizen's Valor Award), an award recently established by the above mentioned police institution.
Deane remembered during the act that the award was created “to recognize the citizens of the community who attend to the effective ones of the police in a critical moment and who differ in acts of valor or heroism, beyond what it might be expected from a civil citizen”.
“ Mister Castillo – it added - it was placed in the middle of a dangerous situation to assist to one of our officials in risk … The Award to the Civil Value is projected to recognize a citizen who should realize an act of extreme courage and should put his own safety in risk to help an official of our police”.
After congratulating to Castle, the police chief delivered to him the distinction consisting of a diploma with a badge and the official certification of the department.
In the ceremony also there was present the police officer Charles Mottey, who embraced thrilled his opportune savior.
Mottey remembered that this Tuesday, the 2nd of October he was covering the ambiences of the Hospital Potomac, in the field of Woodbridge, when he received the report of a theft in the outskirts, “since someone had stolen the cell phone of a visitor in the receiver of the nosocomio”.
The official faced the suspect and when it was trying to take it in care, this one became irate and attacked the police officer in such a way that it threw it to the apartment and then it tried to reach his weapon.
“ In this moment of danger I found the help of mister Castillo, who not only managed to separate the attacker but allowed me the sufficient time so that I could react and arrest the suspect”, expressed Mottey.
Castle, who is of robust constitution, expressed with modesty that he did what any other citizen could have done under similar circumstances.
Also, it proved to be proud of that a citizen of Hispanic origin as he turns into the first prizewinner with the Award to the Civil Value instituted by the police of Prince William.
