As reported by http://Nj.com the first day back at work usually brings some jitters, but Officer Anthony Pyzik showed no nerves, nor hesitation, as he strode into the Summit Police Department Monday morning. His resolve was impressive, especially given the last time he reported for duty, he just barely walked away with his life.

“It’s good to be back,” Pyzik, 32, said Monday during a reception for his return at City Hall.

It was just under two years ago, in April 2020, when Pyzik — who had been with the department since 2017 — was on patrol when his police department vehicle was struck head-on by someone driving a stolen motor vehicle. It happened in an instant, he said. One moment he was responding to dispatch and the next, he’d been struck.
