A local law enforcement officer is recovering from a vehicle crash that occurred last month. The officer, who is based in Alpine, received a significant donation to help with expenses. Funds were raised through the sale of raffle tickets, with assistance from the Alpine Volunteer Fire Department and the Texas Department of Public Safety.

The donation was presented by Brewster County's sheriff during a visit to the officer in El Paso. The officer's condition is reported to be improving, and a return to Alpine is anticipated. Further details about the donation and the officer's recovery are available from the Brewster County Sheriff's Office.
