MOLINE, Illinois (Quad-City Times) Four Moline police officers received a Valor Award from the Illinois Fraternal Order of Police on Tuesday for saving a woman from a burning building, according to a news release from the Fraternal Order of Police.
Sergeant Derrick Cullison and officers Joshua McManus, Andrew Compton and Cody Parmenter responded to an arson call at 3:30 a.m. March 15. The officers arrived first and rescued one woman, who was uncooperative.
