District C-6 Capt. John Greland recounts how one of his officers helped a man out last night:

So last night my CSO [Community Service Officer] Sgt Tim Gaughan meets an elderly gentleman who is upset and crying turns out his wife was getting admitted to the hospital and now his car is missing, it turns out it was towed which really upsets him. So Sgt Gaughan drives him to the tow lot. The Sgt tries to advocate for him buts it's a no go. So the elderly gentleman is really crying that he has to get back to his wife.

So the Sgt says how much is the fee and its $99. The Elderly man says he doesn't have any money and the Sgt looks in his own wallet and sees that he has the money to pay it and does so. The Elderly man says he can't pay him back and Sgt Tim Gaughan says don't worry about and then shows him how to get back to the hospital.
