PC officers go above and beyond

I would like to commend Merrell Potter and Terrell Potter with the Phil Campbell Police Department for the great job they do.

They both worked on a case for me where we had a laptop stolen and they never gave up on the case or quit trying to locate our property.

They went way above and beyond their job to make sure the case was taken care of and they were able to locate my laptop and we will soon have it back, and it is all because of their hard work.

I don’t know the words to say how grateful we are for this.

They handled the case in the most dignified way and they should be respected for what they do as police officers.

You can tell they must love their job because they do it so well.

Thanks again to Merrell Potter and Terrell Potter for all they have done.

April and Samantha Presley
