The Holme Circle Civic Association last week honored 8th Police District Officer Cinnamon Hill for arresting Elias Diaz, the alleged Pennypack Park slasher who was shortly thereafter charged with killing a woman in Fairmount Park in 2003.
Hill described Diaz, who was arrested in December, as “a monster.”

The civic association presented Hill with a plaque while state Rep. Ed Neilson gave her a certificate.
Chris Hanejko, community relations officer in the 8th district, praised the veteran Hill.
“She can defuse any situation,” he said.
Hanejko mentioned a steering wheel lock giveaway taking place at the 7th district, 1701 Bowler St., on Feb. 24 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The giveaway is open to owners of Hyundais and Kias. ••
