With a motorist stranded along the side of U.S. 36 Sunday evening, Deputy Randy Patrick of the Putnam County Sheriff’s Department fuels up the vehicle. While officers are called upon to help in a variety of ways, sometimes the job requires going a little above and beyond the call of duty. This was the case Sunday, as the caller told dispatchers she was out of gas and had no money for a tow truck. Patrick sprung into action, stopping by his home to pick up a gas can and then filling it in Bainbridge using his own money. Patrick was able to get a few gallons of fuel in the woman’s car so she could make her way home.
