Franklin, TN – Franklin Police Chief David Rahinsky met with Matthew and Kimberly Currier and their 3-year-old daughter, Kailey, this morning at Police Headquarters. Kailey is the proud new owner of a 12V battery-operated mini Franklin Police car. Kailey’s was one of three that the Fraternal Order of Police in Franklin purchased for a fundraiser.
The car’s generic version available in stores was redesigned by Franklin Police, Brentwood Police, and the Williamson County Sheriff’s Department, in partnership with the Morris Heithcock FOP Lodge. The cars were showcased at the Williamson County Fair, and for a suggested donation fairgoers could enter for a chance to win. The officers’ benevolence fundraiser, designed to help local officers and their families unexpectedly facing illness and other life-altering events, raised $3,000.
Morris Heithcock FOP President John Maxwell said, “I want to thank everyone for their donations, and the Departments that helped to make this event the success that it was.” Kailey plans on enforcing neighborhood tricycle traffic from the front seat of her new Franklin Police Dodge Charger.
