ST. TAMMANY PARISH, La. (WGNO) – After hearing word of the attacks on Dallas police officers Thursday night, some people want to make sure law enforcement in Louisiana know they are valued.
Mrs. Linda Sorenson gave officers in Slidell a vase of roses, according to a post on Facebook.
Slidell police say she brought the roses in and told them “she was thinking of all Law Enforcement around the country, and wanted us to know that she was thankful for the Slidell Police Department and all that we do for our community.”
Also on Friday, the Louisiana State Police said they have been “overwhelmed by support from the community.”
They tweeted out a photo of cakes and a snack gift basket.
