The driver, whose identity was not released, shared with Cheek that she lived in Gwinnett for more than three decades. He shared that he’s been with the police department for nearly 25 years, even though she said he didn’t look more than 25 years old.
Before the two took off, they shared a hug and some smiles. She thanked Cheek for helping her.
