Sergeant Eric Batchelder Medical
My name is Officer Dino Zografos. My good friend and working colleague Sergeant Eric Batchelder was the victim of a traumatic hit and run traffic accident. Eric was riding his motorcycle on a freeway and while off duty. He has suffered tremendous injury to his natural leg. He had suffered a similar incident years ago causing him to lose the lower half of his other leg. His drive and love for his family allowed him to return to full duty from the first accident. His first accident was deemed an on duty injury and the department covered his medical bills and allowed him to collect full pay during his recovery. However this current accident was while Eric was off duty and he has no income at this time. His wife has had to take leave from her job to help him during his current recovery. Any money collected will help hes family (2 children) with the income that is missing. The funding will be used immediatley or as it is accumulated. Eric has devoted his life to public service and has been an outstanding insperation to all. He is an amazing father to 3 wonderful children and any funding would be greatly appreciated by everyone in our BLUE family.
