A road that runs beside and behind Mandeville City Hall might soon be designated as a public street and named in honor of Capt. Vincent “Vinnie” Liberto Jr. It will be up for a vote before the Mandeville City Council next month. The ordinance proposing the idea cites Liberto’s 25 years of service on the Mandeville Police Department. Liberto was assisting another officer when he was fatally shot after a vehicle pursuit Sept. 20. His funeral drew large crowds at the Castine Center, where the public service was held, and along the procession route to the cemetery.
