We remember Trooper Floyd Farrar. Trooper Floyd Farrar was struck and killed by a vehicle as he was assisting a semi driver with two flat tires.
Trooper Farrar was stopped behind two-semi's in the eastbound lane of Illinois Route 103 in Schuyler County. Trooper Farrar stepped to the rear of his squad car to get flares from the trunk. Just as he stepped onto the road to place the flares a westbound car struck him, throwing him 70-feet. The impact killed him instantly.
Trooper Farrar was a WWII veteran and served with the Illinois State Police since October 4th, 1945. He was assigned to District 14A (District 20). Trooper Farrar was survived by his wife and two children. End of Watch, December 17, 1968

Bank Of America called the Police on a 93 yr old man, who wanted to make a money withdrawal with an expired identification. Bank refused! Officer Robert Josett took the man to the DMV, helped him get his identification renewed, then took him back to the bank to get his money. 👍
@ChicagoCAPS12 Thank you to 34th Ward Alderman Bill Conway for initiating, organizing, and executing a successful "GET BEHIND THE VEST" pancake breakfast at St. Ignatius. Over $100,000.00 was raised to support the Chicago Police. We appreciate all who participated and donated!
