WILDWOOD – Police officers and firefighters have received letters of gratitude commending them for their response to the accidental shooting last summer of a Lithuanian student whose first name, when translated into English, is Hope.

The officers and firefighters on March 12 received copies of a letter from Lithuanian Ambassador to the U.S. Audra Plepyte, thanking them for “taking decisive action” to save Vilte Gruzdyte, 20, who had been shot in the head.
