Boston, MA - A pair of construction workers were honored by Boston Police Commissioner William Evans for helping a veteran city cop subdue a crime suspect who shoved the officer and attempted to flee from him.
The incident occurred on Aug. 31 in the Prudential Mall.
Officer Edward Fleming, a 21-year veteran of the force, was working a detail for Turner Construction at 888 Boylston St. when he spotted a suspect in a larceny that occurred a few blocks away.
Fleming pursued the suspect down Boylston Street and into the Prudential Mall, catching up to him in a corridor near an elevator. As Fleming attempts to take the suspect into custody, the surveillance video shows the man shoving the officer and trying to run away from him.
At that point, Ned Flood, a superintendent for Turner Construction, approaches and watches for a couple of seconds before coming to Fleming's aid. As the suspect attempts to push past Fleming, Flood rushes the man and tackles him to the ground.
Seconds later, Robert Doyle, Flood's colleague at Turner Construction, also steps in to help. After the suspect is handcuffed, the video shows Fleming high-fiving both constructions workers, who are seen sharing a laugh with the officer.
