Rhea County Sheriff Mike Neal and Chief Deputy John Argo visited with Unicoi County Sheriff Mike Hensley yesterday. They presented him with two chainsaws donated by Sale Creek Outdoor Power Equipment & Service and grills donated by Lowe’s in Dayton for his Deputies. Rhea County Sheriff’s Department is also supplying Unicoi County with manpower support to relieve their Deputies and give them an opportunity to rest.
Sheriff Neal and Chief Deputy Argo ask that the Rhea County Community continue to bring donations to the Rhea County Sheriff’s Department Training Center located at 711 Eagle Lane in Evensville. These donations will be given directly to Sheriff Hensley’s Department to disperse as they see fit. The need is immeasurable.
The entire Rhea County Sheriff’s Department continues prayers for those affected by Hurricane Helene and will do all we can to support those first responders on the front lines.
