Holiday cheer spread throughout Palacios Medical Center last Friday as the Palacios Police Department hosted its annual Christmas with a Cop event. Local officers visited patients, families, and hospital staff, delivering smiles, conversation, and holiday spirit. The event brought comfort to those spending Christmas time in the hospital and offered a welcome break from daily routines. Community leaders say the visit showed how local law enforcement continues to support Palacios residents beyond public safety during the holiday season.
