Residents stuff a few cruisers with toys

Dec 13, 2015

Wareham residents teamed up with the Wareham Police Department for the department's annual Stuff-a-Cruiser event Saturday.

Residents donated toys for the event, which were loaded into police cruisers at Target and Walmart to be given to the Dick Melloni Youth Foundation Toy Drive. The Foundation will give the toys to children in need throughout Wareham and surrounding towns. Cash donations were also accepted.

Officer John Iacobucci said he was pleased with the generosity of Wareham residents.

"It was a fantastic turnout today," said Iacobucci. "From 10 o'clock to 2, we have had a lot of donations, this is our fourth load of toys."

Despite their busy schedule, Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus were in attendance to greet shoppers and their children alike.
