Pennsylvania State Trooper VanHart is being called a savior after he answered an emergency call recently in Caln Township Pennsylvania when a mom who was with her dog and two children who were trapped under an Amtrak overpass during a flood.
I am sure that the mom, her kids and their pet dog are grateful that the Pennsylvania State Police Officer answered the call to be rescued under very hard circumstances during a very rainy day since there were no injuries reported in the rescue mission.
This is what makes me laugh. If a police officer abuses his power by beating up a motorist, it is headline news nationwide.
However if a police officer rescues someone in a flood, the news story is usually reported in the region of the rescue. Go figure.

Yes the media picks the things to deride the good of the police.
This trooper VanHart is a heart of gold.
