    CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING COP FIRING: A decision to "let go" of Highland Falls Probationary Officer Hal DesJardines Tuesday is sparking controversy in the small village.
    DeJardines, who was hired last year, told News12 Wednesday village officials claim he didn't pass the probationary period.
    The officer issued 3 tickets to Mayor Patrick Flynn in February for allegedly driving with a suspended license. The tickets were thrown out in court last week.
    ... Mayor Flynn says the decision to terminate DesJardines has nothing to do with their interaction, but rather "multiple complaints" about his conduct.
    DeJardines is also a part-time officer with the Villages of Washingtonville and Cornwall-on-Hudson, and is a volunteer fireman in Salisbury Mills.
    Highland Falls PBA thanked DesJardines Wednesday for his exemplary service, saying by statement he served without disciplinary action and received multiple awards during his time with the department.
