Read the tread about the deputy putting out the fire.

I love cross training!

I know one thing...in about 5 to 15 years...if I worked in LaGrange...I'd be hanging a sign above my bunk that says "not Jason." LOL.

Ryan saw someone running from the gas station while he was driving on Route 55 and was alerted by the gas station owner that a robbery had just occurred. Ryan lost track of the suspect, who was driving north on Freedom Road, but was able to give deputies a partial description of the suspect’s license plate.

(grammatical mistake in the article corrected)

He didn't try to do the job of a police officer and put himself in danger; he was a great witness and facilitated the arrest! Outstanding job, Jason!

5-15 years? Ya think? I'm betting 2-3 years probation after pleading guilty to a reduced charge and getting credit for time served.
