A photo of a Georgia State Patrol trooper cutting grass to help an elderly man in Oglethorpe County “blew up” on Facebook as people shared the good deed.
The photo emerged after Cpl. Neil Frankel, who was on routine patrol Tuesday along Sandy Cross Road, happened upon a man who had fallen while cutting grass along a ditch.
“He (Frankel) thought he (the man) might need an EMS evaluation so he called us,” Oglethorpe County Emergency Medical Services Director Jason Lewis said Wednesday. “They do a full work-up on him and while they are doing that Neil is cutting the grass on the bank for him.”
