A former Long Branch police officer has received $1.62 million as compensation for injuries he received in two separate accidents: one while off-duty and another while on the job. The Monmouth County cases, which were consolidated for trial purposes, were Aponte v. Hanan and Aponte v. Gorman.

Plaintiff Raul Aponte, now 56, of Long Branch, settled the lawsuits on Nov. 5 with defendants Fortune and Morris Hanan of Brooklyn, and Timothy Gorman Jr. of Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, and has since received his settlement funds from the three insurance carriers involved, said Aponte’s attorney, Jack Sanders.
