In a heartwarming incident that highlights the often-overlooked humanity of law enforcement, a Liberta woman has publicly commended three police officers for their exceptional kindness and professionalism. The incident occurred on a poorly lit stretch of road on Wednesday evening when the woman’s vehicle struck a pothole, causing a tire puncture. Amid growing concerns about crime in the area, the situation could have been distressing, but the timely intervention of Constable 285 Jamilla Edwards, Constable 347 Choyan James, and Constable 241 Linton Degallerie turned it into a moment of gratitude and relief. The officers not only changed the damaged tire but also accompanied her to three tire shops in St. John’s to find the correct replacement and returned to reinstall it.
