Today, some of our officers had one of the best assignments of the year.
Dressed as superheroes, they rappelled down the side of Mercy Health St. Vincent Medical Center and stopped outside the windows to visit with children inside.
Superman and Spider-Man shared a moment of joy with the children. That was the best part of the day.
We hope we made their day a little brighter. We know they made ours.
Thank you to Mercy Health St. Vincent Medical Center for allowing us to be part of it.

Do you know when to stop for school buses?
The only vehicles allowed to proceed when a school bus is stopped are those on a road with four lanes or more, traveling in the opposite direction. In all other circumstances, you must stop to protect students getting on/off the bus.
🧹 Time to clean out your medicine cabinet! Bring unneeded prescription medications to Drug Take Back Day on October 24, 10 AM–2 PM. #ToledoPolice #TakeBackDay
