"My father was a police officer with the New York Police Department; I've always had a high respect for officers," he said.

Ferrigno began training to become a reserve deputy last September after passing a background check. He completed training in firearms, first aid and high-speed driving techniques, and was recognised as "an outstanding trainee" by Sheriff Lee Baca.
