A police officer in Nebraska caught the nation’s attention after a security camera captured his attempt to fix a fallen American flag outside an auto repair shop. Noticing the flag on the ground while patrolling the city of Kearney on June 14, the officer approached and made the decision to intervene.
In the footage, shared by Kearney Tire & Auto Service on Facebook, the Kearney Police Department (KPD) officer retrieves the fallen American flag from the sidewalk before attempting to replace it into its holder. After realizing that the holder is damaged, the officer carefully rolls the flag and rests it against the wall of the auto repair shop.
