He issued a warning to the driver and then proceeded to take a broom to the roof, knocking the snow off in an effort to keep her and others safe on the roadways.
The incident was captured on video by a passerby on her mobile phone.
Joanne Chlebogiannis said in the video, "I think it's absolutely beautiful that this police officer is taking the snow off this person's car."
She added as she passed the scene, "Good for you, officer!"
Thank you Joeanne Chlebogiannis for sharing this video with us! Joanne wanted us to know that in her opinion, Off. Derek Harris had gone above and beyond the scope of his duties yesterday during the snowy morning commute.
