Kudos to a Woodstock Police Officer

Patch got this letter from a reader Friday morning. Enjoy!

Last night (Thursday June 14th)Β while on Hwy 92, I saw a Woodstock Police Officer block off the east bound side of the road in front of the RaceTrac at Hames Rd with his lights flashing. As any curious citzen would be I watched from the west bound side as he exited his car & approached something in the road. He kneeled down to rescue a scared kitten coward down in the middle of the road. Way to go officer!! The moral of the story is - not all flashing police lights are for the purpose of writing tickets or handling illegal actions. It just goes to show all of us that we all have compassion. Even law enforcement.

Have a good Day!!
