Life-saving award for San Jacinto County sheriff's deputy
On April 22, Sheriff Greg Capers proudly awarded San Jacinto County Sheriff's Deputy Joseph Pellegrino for his heroic actions in which saved a man's life in October.
On Oct. 25, 2019, Pellegrino was working patrol on U.S. 190 in his assigned district of patrol. During this time, Pellegrino came in contact with a driver in the Darby Hill area of San Jacinto County. He observed a vehicle impending at a high rate of speed toward the rear of his marked patrol vehicle, which had the emergency lights activated for safety.
Pellegrino, observing the vehicle veering closer and closer to where he and the contact person were standing, knew that danger was imminent and took action to preserve the life of the contact person and by doing so, disregarded his own personal safety without hesitation.
The impending vehicle struck the rear of Pellegrino's patrol vehicle on the improved shoulder of the road. Pellegrino, in the same instance, wrapped his arms around the contact person, turned him and used his body to shield the contact person from the brunt of impact that was caused from the impending vehicle striking his patrol vehicle, which in turn struck Pellegrino. The chain reaction impact caused both Pellegrino and the contact person to be thrown into the ditch approximately 10-15 feet from the point of impact.
Officers and deputies from both San Jacinto County and Polk County responded to his call for assistance after being struck. Firefighters and EMS medics arrived on scene minutes after the crash, where Pellegrino was then transported to CHI St. Lukes Hospital-Livingston for treatment. The contact person was not injured upon evaluation from medics.
Upon interview of the contact person as to what had transpired, he kept asking about "his hero" and the "deputy that saved his life," as to whether Pellegrino was OK. Pellegrino was evaluated and later released from the hospital, bruised and sore but alive.

 State and local law enforcement agencies are required to ensure effective communication with individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. The U.S. Department of Justice has laid down guidelines for them to follow. There have been numerous cases of complaints about a lack of understanding for people with disabilities. It is therefore heartwarming to read about stories where officers have gone above and beyond the scope of their duties to help people with hearing difficulties.
