A parade of Cobb County Sheriff’s Office vehicles visited two county hospitals on Thursday in the midst of Georgia’s Covid-19 outbreak.
Sheriff Neil Warren and his troops took a few minutes to thank these healthcare heroes.
“On any given day law enforcement is the front line of defense in our community but not today, said Sheriff Neil Warren. “Today it's the doctors and nurses protecting our way of life and we wanted to show our appreciation to them by honoring them with a drive by and a salute. We are forever grateful for their sacrifice.”
The officers were greeted by cheering hospital workers as they visited WellStar Cobb Hospital in Austell and WellStar Kennestone Hospital in Marietta.
