Police Raising Money For Local Volunteer Battling Cancer

WATERFORD, CT — Anthony "Chip" Jessuck volunteered as a baseball and football coach for Waterford youth sports. He's volunteered his time serving on the Waterford Board of Finance and other causes in town. And, Waterford Police and those who know him say he's just an "all around good person."

Jessuck is undergoing cancer treatments. He and his wife have five children. It's a trying time for the family and so police are hoping to help raise some money to help them "as they go through this rough spell."

"If you stop by the Waterford Police Department and go to the front lobby, you will be able to purchase tickets for $5 each that will be raffling a Mallove's Jeweler's gift card,a Filomena's Restaurant gift card, and assorted concert and sporting event tickets. The drawing takes place this Sunday at Filomena's you don't need to be present to win," police wrote on Facebook.

There is also a Chip or Treat cornhole tournament and dinner. Tickets are $20 per person or $40 per team.

"Stop by and donate Waterford, we as a police department appreciate your constant generosity! "
