Seattle (Wash.) police dispatchers Debra Cepeda and Lieth Nedell were honored at the annual Seattle Police Foundation‘s awards banquet for their handling of a 911 call last July from a shooting victim during which the suspect came on the line. Cepeda appeared in a pre-taped video during the banquet, recounting some of the shooting at the Jewish Federation offices that ended with one death and five injuries. “This was such an incredibly fast event from beginning to end, from the time shots were fired until he just finally said, ‘OK, I’m coming out, I’m giving up,'” Cepeda said on the video. Cepeda is a 23-year veteran, while Nedell had just 13 months experience. Read more here.
