TBO Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) California woman rescued from powerless, snowed in home by sheriff's deputy An elderly woman was rescued from her frigid home in California after sheriff's deputiesfound her alone, without power and surrounded by snow. Joan Almstrom was at her home in Pioneer, roughly 61 miles east of Sacramento, on Saturday when a neighbor couldn't get in contact with her and called authorities to check on her. Deputy Casey Wilson, of the Amador County Sheriff's Office, responded, and found Almstrom "inside, freezing cold and without power, heat or phone service," according to a Facebook post from the department. The sheriff's deputy shoveled snow from Almstrom's home to the road. He then transported her to his patrol vehicle and brought her to the Jackson Rancheria Casino Resort in Jackson. The hotel, according to the sheriff's office, provided them with a discounted rate for a hotel room — for which Wilson paid. https://www.foxnews.com/us/california-woman-rescued-from-powerless-snowed-in-home-by-sheriffs-deputy Edited February 19, 2019 by TBO 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown Hawk Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 This is nothing more than another vicious brutal act of toxic masculinity. The feminists were so robbed of the opportunity to help this poor sister because some TV station had a camera and mike open somewhere. And of course they had to help the station first.

PATCHMAN Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 (edited) Of course, in this story a MRAP wasn't needed for the rescue but it's always good to know that surplussed DOD MRAPs are out there, in the hands of LE agencies, should the need arise. Not just for furious shootouts with bad guys but also for rescues in severe weather such as storms, snows, hurricanes, tornados and floods.
