Some fellow law enforcement officers deep-fried some fish Friday for a different cause.

 

The Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office hosted a fish fry to raise money to buy Christmas gifts for families who are on 2012's Salvation Army Angel Tree.

 

"It's a good thing you know, "said Brian Monroe, of Shreveport, LA.  "There's kids in the area that needs some help, they're not going to have a Christmas unless somebody helps support them."

 

"It's something I look forward to every year," said Jack Fitzgerald, of Shreveport, LA.  "My family and I and my church...we're big supporters of this program."

 

The event raised around $2,400.While our cameras were there, a representative of "Teeco Safety, Inc, dropped off a $100 check.

 

The Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office will host another fish fry at the South Substation at 9956 Mansfield Road, near Keithville on Friday, Oct. 26 from 10-2 p.m.
