Police officers make the oath to “protect and serve” their community — and one New York cop fulfilled that creed while hiking a mountain nearly 3,000 miles from home

So that’s what they did. Blomquist and officer Mahabir took turns carrying the 58-year-old Diekkman more than three miles down the mountain until they reached a rescue vehicle.

The Diekkman's were so grateful for their heroism, they sent hand-written thank you notes and a letter to the police chief in Clarkstown. Scott Diekkman said he told the police chief that"it was evidence that there’s still good in the world."
