The 39th anniversary of the 1981 Brinks heist that left two Nyack police officers and a Brinks security guard dead is being remembered despite the coronavirus pandemic. Rockland County Executive Ed Day says the act of terrorism and its aftermath will never be forgotten…
Social distancing and mask-wearing rules will be in effect for the event tomorrow. It’s at 4pm at the Memorial in Nyack at the exit 11 entrance to the southbound Thruway off Route 59 and Mountainview Avenue. Nyack Police Sergeant Edward O’Grady, officer Waverly “Chipper” Brown, and Brinks guard Peter Paige were killed in shootouts that began with a robbery of an armored car at the old Nanuet Mall.
