Quilts for Cops

Sgt
Springfield Police Department

April 20, 2026 - Springfield, South Carolina
An incident began when a suspect managed to slip his handcuffs while being questioned, stole a Marion police SUV, and led multiple agencies on a 30-minute chase down I-40. The pursuit ended after Arkansas State Trooper vehicles stopped the SUV using a tactical vehicle intervention, but in the chaos of the scene, a Sgt was hit.

A responding West Memphis police car struck him while he was tending to his patrol SUV. He survived after eight surgeries to save his legs and was released from the hospital in late April.

I hope this quilt will provide some comfort while he continues to recover.

Thank you received 🥰

Hi. My son is a police officer who was severely burned in the line of duty, going into a burning building to help get people out. He was sent a quilt by your organization. It’s so beautiful! I can’t tell you how much it brightened his day and made him feel so appreciated! Thank you so much! I am so grateful to you for thinking of him!🩷

Around 1pm the South Salem Fire Department was dispatched to 27 Old Shop Rd for a reported structure fire with occupants trapped in the residence. Upon arrival, Westchester County PD, Lewisboro PD and SSFD members attempted initial emergency searches within the front entrance and basement of the residence in an attempt to extricate trapped residents just before the inside experienced combined flashover and smoke explosion.

At this point, two Lewisboro Police Officers and one SSFD Captain were directly in front of the building when this event occurred, resulting in varying burn injuries.

We have sent these quilts to the Officer and Sgt to let them know we care.
