ATVs help Carroll Co. police officers go where cruisers can?t

When 50-mph winds ripped through Carroll County this weekend, Sykesville police took their new all-terrain vehicle off-roading where cruisers couldn?t go.

“Officer Dave Lewis patrolled to assess the damage, came across several downed trees and notified the city?s public works,” said Chief John Williams. “He even chained a downed tree to the ATV and pulled it out of the way” to clear a path for the responding crew.
