“There was an incident on I think Monday night where a police officer who is assigned to Precinct Two apparently drank some noxious substance and was rushed to the K.H.M.H.  He is currently in the hospital admitted in a stable condition. From what we have been able to understand he is slowly recovering and he should make a full recovery in a short space of time.”
