Ridley Park Patrolman Donald F. Blizzard pleaded guilty to a summary offense for lending his motorcycle to Michael L. Lawless, a reputed Pagan member who drove it without a valid license. He paid a $200 fine plus $16.60 in costs after a hearing, with DA John A. Reilly and his Major Crimes Task Force present. Blizzard had resigned from the FOP amid an internal probe and faces potential license suspension up to a year. Lawless was cited for driving without eye protection. McKnight, a Pagan official, was later arrested on an old vehicle violation and fined.
