The city of Attleboro, MA, has begun hiring an off-duty police officer on a detail to focus specifically on assisting snow plow drivers with cars left in the street and other potential problems with residents.
Hiring a detail officer for the duration of a storm allows the on-duty police shift to focus on other matters facing the department during that time.
