Sometimes at work you have to do things that don’t exactly fall into your job description.

That was the case for a Kamloops RCMP officer on Friday when he was dispatched to help a broken down wheelchair.



When a transit bus driver noticed the man in the power wheelchair struggling, he notified police.

Toor arrived on scene and the man advised him that the motor on his chair had broken and he had no family to call or money for a cab.

​

The wheelchair wouldn’t fit in Toor’s patrol car either, so the officer took matters into his own hands, literally, and wheeled the man over six blocks to his residence.

“The man just needed a helping hand,” said Toor. “I was glad to help him get home safely.”
