 Denver 911, what is the address of the emergency? Hi, I'm Raquel Lopez with DPDTV. Oftentimes our officers respond to calls not knowing what they're going to encounter. Let me tell you about one of those times. I don't know if he's dangerous, but he's not right. Does that make sense? I'm Lieutenant Jeff Martinez, Denver Police District 4. I responded to a call at a Rosemary's Cafe where we had an individual that was acting suspicious and strange. We handed a note to the business asking for some food. We thought this was rather strange, so I covered the officers on this call. And when I responded to this call, I went inside and he was no longer there. And right at that time, Officer Balavo had shown up. I made contact with the party and he was acting very strange. He wasn't really responding to any of my commands or questions that I was asking him or anything else. But it turned out he could hear, he just wasn't responding. And then it was pretty obvious that he was having some mental issues. But the more we talked to him and the more we told him that we were there to help him, then he started loosening up a little bit. We wanted to make sure that this individual was OK. He related that he had a minor problem in Adams County and he was working his way to Fort Logan in order to get some paperwork. He knew that he was dirty, he had been living on the street for a while, and he didn't want to show up in Adams County looking the way that he did. We couldn't just walk away from that call, so. Officer Balavo took this individual, got him some clothes. I came to a local food bank, told him the situation, and they gave this gentleman a couple of care packages. What stands out in my mind is the guy hadn't eaten in several days, but he was most happy that the church put soap and toothpaste in his bag and he was able to brush his teeth. We said our goodbyes and he actually shook my hand and he's a type of person who doesn't like to be touched, so I took that as a very high compliment. This was not something the officers had to do. This is something the officers did because they care about people, because they want to make sure that people are taken care of. That's the cool thing about being a police officer. You never know who you're going to be able to help that day. I'm Raquel Lopez with DPD TV. Thanks for watching.
