Welcome Home Rick Phillips | New Oxford
February 16, 2011
Welcome Home Celebration for Eastern Adams Regional Police Officer Rick Phillips.
Officer Phillips was injured severely on March 11, 2010 when he crashed into a tractor trailer while in pursuit of a motor vehicle. Today, after eight months in a rehabilitation facility in North Caroline, Rick returned back home to a greeting by towns people, firefighters, police officer and state dignitaries. It is truly a miracle of some kind that Officer Phillips survived the horrific crash, must less walked off the air plane on his own today. IT was wonderful to see the public come out in the hundreds with home made signs, banners and waving American Flags as Ricks co-workers drove around the towns circle many times with sirens blaring, red lights flashing and Rick waving to his supporters.
WELCOME HOME RICK....and thank you for your service to our community.
