Honoring first responders who fight blazes, save lives and deter crime

Earlier this year on a Sunday afternoon in January, Morgan Hill Sgt. Troy Hoefling was serving as day shift watch commander when he went to patrol the city’s new downtown parking garage. There had been prior complaints of delinquent behavior on the upper levels. When the 27-year-veteran drove to the fourth floor he noticed a teenage girl sitting on the ledge and a dog tethered nearby. He called out, but she replied with a blank stare. Once near her, he noticed cuts on her wrist that were still bleeding. Still not communicating with him, Hoefling acted quickly and grabbed onto the girl and pulled her from the ledge, saving a potential teen suicide.
