Street Renamed for Two Volunteer Cops

A Manhattan street was renamed for the two volunteer police officers who were slain while confronting a gunman on a rampage through Greenwich Village.
    
Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly and City Council Speaker Christine Quinn attended a ceremony Saturday to rename the street and dedicate a plaque.
    
Auxiliary officers Eugene Marshalik and Nicholas Pekearo were unarmed when they were gunned down on March 14, 2007, while trying to stop David Garvin, who was trying to flee after killing a pizzeria bartender.
    
Full-time police officers then killed Garvin.
    
The 19-year-old Marshalik was a student at nearby New York University. The 28-year-old Pekearo had written a science-fiction novel, "The Wolfman," which was published by Tor Books.
