This week’s photo was submitted by Ashley O’Chap from the South Bend Police Department in Indiana.

“On a fairly regular basis, local schoolchildren send in drawings of police officers or hand-made cards. We typically display them in our roll call or break rooms, but this time, we decided to take it a step further,” writes Ashley. “We scanned all the kids’ drawings, then superimposed them into real photos and situations around our police department, to make it appear as though the cartoons were working with us. The kids got a big kick out of it. I’ve attached the photos and the link to the Facebook post is below.”
