Missoula Police officer’s good deed hailed by touring bloggers

Not all good deeds go unnoticed.

On Wednesday during Out to Lunch, an elderly man attempted to cross Higgins Avenue at the height of the midday rush in downtown Missoula.

The man was mobility impaired and didn’t complete the crossing before the light turned green.

Spotting the man’s predicament, Missoula Police Officer James Pontrelli pulled his motorcycle into traffic. He got off the bike and helped the man across the street.
