In 2025, a New York man, Peter Zisopoulos, was sentenced to 25 years to life in prison for the 2022 fatal stabbing of Lt. Alison Russo-Elling, a 61-year-old veteran emergency worker. Russo-Elling was on a break from her fire department duties when she was attacked. Mourners recalled Russo-Elling as a dedicated public servant who had responded to the Sept.
