With the mother doe near by waiting in angst, Officer Giacchi was able to remove the baby fawn from the storm drain. This is just one example of how many different roles our officers take on during their daily patrol functions.

It is a soft, slow genocide of the middle class, a march toward barbarism and a new dark age.
