BRISTOL – At a meeting of the Bristol Board of Selectmen on Thursday, July 6, the members took time to recognize Officer Nick Kelley of the Bristol Police Dept. for his heroic response to an active shooter incident in the City Of Franklin.
Chief Kristopher Bean said Kelley and his K9 partner Arro were called to Franklin at ap- proximately 11:30 a.m. on June 6 to assist their department. He and Arro met with Sgt. Joseph Guerriero, Sgt. Jonathan Fran- cis and Sgt. Forrest Walker of the Franklin Police Dept. and without hesitation or regard for
their own safety, Bean said they entered the residence where the shooting had been reported and took control of the scene.
Following their brave response to the tragic event, in which a mother and child were killed and her older daughter was injured, Bean said he received a call from Sgt. Francis. Francis thanked the chief for Kelley’s assistance that day and said it was his hope that all who responded would be rec- ognized for their actions.
Bristol’s selectmen agreed and were pleased to present Officer Kelley with a Letter of Accom- modation for his actions that day.
