On this episode of KSL's beyond the badge, we honor Sergeant Nick Napierski. When a man blew a tire on his trailer while driving on Highway 6, Sergeant Napierski didn't think twice about helping the man in need to get him back on the road. Sergeant Napierski says that "it may be our hundreth crash we've seen this week.... literally 50 years from now these people remember, and they remember the officer that was there". A simple everyday gesture, that could leave a lasting impact on the person he's helped.
