Police Give Turkeys Instead Of Tickets

Tualatin Police gave out turkeys instead of tickets to some of the drivers they pulled over on Tuesday.

Tualatin officers wanted to take the opportunity to put a smile on people's faces and brighten their day by giving back to the community. 

Drivers who were stopped for committing minor violations received a turkey and a smile. 

One of the violators who received a turkey had planned on cooking the Thanksgiving turkey they already have at home and serving it to the homeless. They were thankful to receive a second turkey today, so they have one for their own family on Thanksgiving Day. 

The turkey giveaway was made possible through generous donations from The Tualatin Community Police Foundation.
