CPD Officer Brennan Wheatley

There are some assignments that just make my heart so full and I am honored to be apart of them.

Officer Brennan Wheatley patrolled the streets of Campbellsville with his partner Officer Andy Warren Wednesday.
The Campbellsville Police Department made Wheatley's early birthday the best yet as he was sworn in as an official Police Officer for the Day.
The soon-to-be 23-year-old with Down Syndrome has wanted to be a cop for as long as his family can remember. Officer Wheatley's main focus for the day was to help people around town.

See more photos and read about Brennan's day in Monday's issue of the CKNJ.

Not to mention Officer Wheatley was quite the flirt- and you know I can't deny a man in uniform.

H & W Sports Shop fire

Thursday night a local business in downtown Campbellsville was struck by lightning and caught fire. It was such a crazy night.

I was luckily enough to be home to be able to react to the scanner call and head down pretty fast.

Spot news can be such dramatic events but they can make for the most beautiful images.

I think some of my favorite images come from spot news events. I have to think on my feet more and try and make a "routine" scene engaging.

Lightning still filled the sky as crews were batting the blaze. I was able get to some of the most amazing lightning photos that night.

Not to mention I also wrote a 1,300 word story the next day. Boom. (And yes that is my headline)
