A Newburgh police officer is being recognized for chasing down four murder suspects.

Officer Hannah Lake was presented a commendation this week for her role in catching the four men.

Police say someone in a SUV shot a victim last month and then fled.

Lake was able to identify the vehicle from surveillance footage, which prompted a traffic stop.

Police say a chase then ensued until the SUV crashed.

Four men from the Poughkeepsie area were taken into custody.
