Court confirmed decision of Pension Board denying police officer's application for line-of-duty disability pension or, alternatively, by reason of stroke suffered in performance of his duties as a police officer. Sufficient evidence in record supports Board's finding that Plaintiff failed to prove that his disability is the result of stroke suffered as result of performance of duties as a police officer, as two physicians noted that stroke was of unclear etiology. (CONNORS and CUNNINGHAM, concurring.)
