....when police vehicles could not respond

U.S. Army Spcs. Christopher Partin, left, and William Spencer, both with the 1175th Military Police Company, respond to a house fire with a county police officer in St. Louis County, Mo., Feb. 1, 2011. National Guardsmen were providing transportation for police emergencies when police vehicles could not respond following a severe winter storm that caused several Midwestern governors to declare states of emergency.
