Officer Brian Verney was patrolling the area of Central Street by Hillview Road when he saw local 3rd grader Hailey Irving and her grandmother (Mema) picking up litter along Central Street.
They explained that they live nearby and when they see litter left on the side of the road in their neighborhood, they make it a priority to clean it up, doing their part to keep the neighborhood looking great.
Officer Verney provided Hailey with “Caught You! Doing Something Right” award coupon which is part of a joint community policing effort between NRPD and Ryer’s Store. The coupon is good for a discounted purchase at Ryer’s Store. Thank you to Ryer’s for your continued support of community efforts.
North Reading youth and their families continue to impress us all with their efforts in the community and we look forward to seeing more.
Great job Hailey! and Mema!
