Spotting First Responders Providing Extraordinary Service

We continually are amazed at the unselfish, heroic deeds done by our First Responders, not looking for any credit!

One of these unselfish, heroic deeds was spotted at 11:12 a.m. on September 20 on the freeway on-ramp at Alvarado Road North on the 880 freeway... 

There was a senior citizen female standing out of harms way near her car that had a flat tire.  I saw the CHP vehicle and then noticed the CHP officer on her knees safely changing this lady’s tire – just off of the freeway on-ramp!

I could just imagine that this senior citizen got the flat tire and did not have any road service so this kind CHP officer took things into her own hands!

Thank you, officer.  I so wish I could have gotten a picture so I could find out which office this marvelous CHP officer was assigned.  Your selfless act was an inspiration as well as a reminder how blessed we are to have men and women serving us.  Stay safe.
