1Opinion of the Court
The opinion of the Court was delivered by
CLIFFORD, J.
We must determine in these consolidated cases the circumstances under which a police officer may be retired on an accidental disability retirement allowance under the Police and Firemen’s Retirement System, N.J.S.A. 43:16A-1 to -68. The statute provides for payment of such benefits when an officer is “permanently and totally disabled as a direct result of a traumatic event * * N.J.S.A. 43:16A-7. For the reasons that follow, we conclude that none of the officers before us is entitled to an accidental disability retirement allowance.
