## Resource

A Hyannis police officer with 19 years of service was critically injured after being struck by a suspected drunk driver during a post-concert crowd control operation. Officer Peter Ginnetty suffered multiple broken bones and severe leg trauma but remains optimistic as he recovers in the hospital. The 43-year-old suspect, Robert Brando-Hunt, was arrested on the scene, charged with OUI causing serious injury and negligent driving — his second DUI offense. He pleaded not guilty and is facing legal consequences as the community rallies around the fallen officer and his family.
