Corporal Matthew Stadulis last week was awarded the Law Enforcement Medal of Valor by the Montgomery County District's Attorney's Office.
The Medal of Valor is the Office's most prestigious award. It is presented to select members of law enforcement who bravely placed their lives at risk to protect the citizens of the county.
Office Stadulis was honored for bravery and exemplary performance during what appeared to be a routine call when a suspect fired a stolen gun at him at point-blank range, which thankfully did not fire. Officer Stadulis was able to disarm the suspect, protect his own firearm and radio for back-up.
