You never know who you will meet as a State Trooper!
This afternoon, Troopers from Connecticut State Police - Troop C Tolland were called to I-84 in Tolland to assist a motor vehicle with a flat tire. Upon arrival, Troopers were greeted by Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, and the first ever President elected by popular vote in Poland, Lech Walesa. President Walesa was visiting the state championing the cause of Ukrainian refugees who have fled to Poland and met with the World Affairs Council of Connecticut and Office of Governor Ned Lamont.
Trooper Lipert, a native of Poland, was beyond grateful for the opportunity to help such an influential individual, and briefly speak to him about the history of Poland.
