Today’s Good News
A woman recently emailed to thank First Precinct Lieutenants Jeremy Sayles
and Dan Minton after she got lost around VCU Medical Center while trying to
find the proper entrance to visit a family member. “As I am sure you know, this
hospital and this area can be very confusing, especially to someone unfamiliar with
the area,” she wrote.
“Two very professional and helpful
officers went above and beyond helping me find the right entrance. They made a
phone call, Googled, etc. until they were able to find the correct entrance.
Then, they were good enough to escort me there. I would have probably give up
and never found my sister if it were not for Lt. Daniel Minton and Lt. Jeremy Sayles. God Bless them both. The
world would be a much better place if more men were like these wonderful
gentlemen.”
