Off-duty cop takes action to assist officer
An off-duty police officer ran into action when he noticed a potentially dangerous situation involving a fellow officer in Lake Country.
Constable Nickel was enjoying his day off with his family when he noticed an officer having issues with a suspect who was not cooperating. When Constable Nickel observed the issue, he parked his vehicle, secured his family then ran up a hill to assist in the take down of this agitated suspect.
His wife caught some of the incident on video.
“Fortunately, Constable Nickel was in the area and able to assist, going above and beyond to help a fellow officer,” said Sergeant Desmond Kiehlbauch. “We would like to thank his wife for videoing the incident and bringing it to our attention.”
No other details about the incident have been released.
