The last several weeks Knox Co Sheriffs Office has been collecting Caring Bears. Stuffed bears that Officers or First Reaponders can have to give to a child during a difficult time. This morning the Knox Co Sheriffs Office opened a Turkey Creek precinct office and began distributing the first of 6,000 stuffed bears to area law enforcement and first responder agencies.
