A Port Authority K-9 sergeant was honored Wednesday for saving the life of a retired firefighter who suffered a heart attack while driving on the Belt Parkway last year.
Sergeant Kenneth Harris, 47, reunited with retired FDNY firefighter John Deliso, of Battalion 21, at the morning ceremony hosted by the Uniformed Firefighters Association at his former firehouse on Staten Island.
The two men tightly hugged and started laughing and crying when they saw each other.
The hero cop was presented with a plaque in the formal FDNY ceremony, featuring three fire chiefs from Staten Island, as well as Port Authority police chiefs and State Sen. Jessica Scarcella-Spanton (D-NY).
