Bronson and Ellinger were honored for chasing and catching a man who robbed an elderly woman outside a Lockport restaurant on November 5. Bronson is a microbiology major from Lockport and the starting quarterback for the University’s football team. State police arrested the would-be robber, who has been charged with committing a similar crime the night before. “Without Dan doing what he did, I believe the suspect would continue to do this until he was caught,” state police investigator John Spero says. “Kudos to Dan.” (Lockport Union-Sun & Journal photo / Joed Viera)
