HCSO releases photos of rescuers and Carrico family reunion

Just another day, another incident in Old Town

Was just walking up 6th street, saw this five minutes ago and saw the officers responding. Recognized one of the officers as EPD Ben Altic. 

Took photos yesterday of someone intoxicated but didn't post it. The person was on cuffed in a police car.  This was while walking near 2nd and C street.  There were  two police cars parked and EPD Officers Brian Ross and Dennis Gagnon.

In both situations, the police officers were in the middle of doing their job. I did not ask them any questions. Just the DUIs and drunk in public could be a whole blog if I posted on every incident.
