Frank A. Bersito.
Police Officer Frank Bersito was killed in an automobile crash on Claremont and Sidney Avenues in Mount Vernon. Around 3:30 p.m., Officer Bersito was traveling on Sidney Avenue, and as he entered the intersection at Claremont Avenue, a car failed to stop at the stop sign. The car struck the back of his patrol van, spinning it into a tree and hitting the car. The force of impact flung Officer Bersito out of the van, which ran over him when it came to a stop. He was pronounced dead at the scene. The other driver was not injured. Officer Bersito had served with the Mount Vernon Police Department for 18 years.
