Today (02/24/26), an elderly couple battling serious illnesses contacted the Police Department after becoming trapped inside their home by approximately 18 inches of snow blocking both their doors. Unable to get out and in need of assistance, they called us for help.
Officer Luther and Officer McVicar responded and made contact with the homeowners. After ensuring both residents were safe, the officers helped coordinate a plow company to clear access to the home and provided information about our local food pantry should additional support be needed.
Before clearing the call, Officers Luther and McVicar learned the couple were running low on milk. Without hesitation, the officers went to the store and purchased a gallon to make sure they had what they needed until they could safely leave their home.
Policing is not just about responding to emergencies — it’s about serving our community with compassion, especially during challenging times.
Great job, Officer Luther and Officer McVicar. Your actions truly reflect the heart of this department.
