Posted: 10/16/2010
LORAIN, Ohio - Lorain police officers are supporting a former co-worker who was injured while on duty by selling T-shirts to raise money for him and his family.
Pete Soto, an Avon police officer, remains at MetroHealth Medical Center in critical condition after being struck by a vehicle while on duty earlier this week.
Soto had previously worked for Lorain's police department before joining Avon's force.
Craig Payne and Matt Bonkosk, who both worked along side Soto in Lorain, wanted to help Soto with his medical bills.
The duo created a T-shirt in honor of Soto that they could sell to raise money to help ease the financial burden on Soto and his family.
The shirts are being sold for $20 each.
To purchase a T-shirt contact Bonkoski or Payne at helping_soto@yahoo.com .
