Prayer Vigil To Be Held For Bergen County Officer Injured In Crash
LODI, N.J. (CBSNewYork) -- A prayer vigil will be held Friday night for a Bergen County Police Department officer critically injured in a crash last weekend.
Officer Daniel Breslin, 39, was assisting another officer early Saturday when a car slammed into his SUV on Route 46 westbound in Lodi, officials said.
Breslin is on life support and in a medically-induced coma after suffering severe head injuries.

Ettz has been suspended from teaching and remains free on $150,000 bail.
The prayer vigil for Breslin will be held at Holy Trinity Roman Catholic Church at 8 p.m. Friday.
Breslin is married and has two children.
