People were coming together in Washington Heights on Sunday night to remember an NYPD officer who lost his life last week. Alexis Martinez was just 26 year old when he was killed in an apparent murder-suicide.
Martinez is remembered as a dedicated officer, who loved helping others.
"Officer Martinez was someone when he went into a room, and smiled, he lit up the room. Everyone remembers him as a amazing young person who loves people and likes to mentor young people," said Alejandro Zayas, of the New York State Chaplain Task Force."A person that cared about the community, that wanted to make a difference. He was ambitious. He wanted to be a sergeant, a detective. That was his goal. That was his dream.
