Police will be looking for good deeds

In addition to tracking down wanted criminals, Chatham-Kent police will be keeping an eye out for people doing good deeds in the community.

Officers will be stopping citizens who are "caught" doing random acts of kindness and will be giving them a gift certificate to a local restaurant or grocery store, as a thank you.
