Local Cops Dig 99-Year-Old Out Of Over Foot Of Snow

Shout out to some local cops who not only protect and serve, but apparently do some serious shoveling too. Photos of three local police officers digging out a distressed 99-year-old woman barricaded inside her house by over over a foot of snow in Albany, has gone viral.

The good deed was done by members of the Albany Police Department, shared on their facebook page and later picked up by People magazine.

According to a tweet by Steve Smith from the Albany Police, a 99-year-old woman called into the station asking for some help as over a foot of snow tuned the Capital Region into something out of Frozen 2.  Three Albany Police officers sprang into action using a snowblower and a few shovels to dig the elderly woman out.

The Albany Police department Facebook post has nearly 3 thousand shares and the good news spread quickly as everyone themselves tried to shovel out of this mess.
