Jacksonville community members rally together to clean local sports park following storms
The owner of Future Champions Sports complex, Adam Jamison, said more than 300 people came out Thursday night, to clean up the damage. The Jacksonville Police Department was worried about potential looters, so they put their police camera trailer inside the complex to keep watch.
The owner of Future Champions Sports complex, Adam Jamison, told me more than 300 people came out Thursday night, to clean up the damage.
Jamison said it’s been a struggle to see all of the damage, but they received an overwhelming amount of support from the community.
That support includes the Jacksonville Police Department. The Deputy Chief of Patrol, Matt Martin, said it’s important to always lend a helping hand to those in need.
“We would do it for anybody in town obviously because that’s our job,” Martin said. “But it’s a big complex, it’s a huge part of our community. We wanted to be there for them to make sure their property was secured and nothing was going on that shouldn’t be.”
Martin said the department was worried about potential looters, so they put their police camera trailer inside the complex to keep watch. He said the department also put officers on night patrol outside of the complex to keep watch. The department also volunteered to help clean up leftover debris from Wednesday’s storms.
