Happy birthday, Jules!
This week, officers with the Clearwater Police Department turned on their emergency lights and sirens and sped off to a call -- a birthday girl in need!
Since Jules is spending her birthday at home because of the coronavirus, the officers held a parade down her front street. Jules and her family waved at the officers as they sent her happy birthday wishes.
