Bartlesville police remember one of their own who passed away over the weekend. Lieutenant Robb Fouts died early Sunday after recently being diagnosed with cancer. Last Thursday Lt. Fouts was released from the hospital and escorted home by the Bartlesville Police Department and other law enforcement officers.

Acting chief Rocky Bevard had this to says the loss of Lt. Fouts is tragic and shocking to everyone at the police department.

Fouts had worked for the Bartlesville Police Department for 24-years. On Saturday, Sal’s Daylight Donuts along Frank Phillips Blvd in Bartlesville held a fundraiser for the Fouts family.

Bevard says Sal’s did a good thing to help officers collect funds to help the Fouts family.

The 4th annual Cops and Rodders Car Show sponsored by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office reserve program will continue to raise funds for the Fouts family on October 6th at 611 SW Adams Blvd.

50-percent of the concession proceeds raised at this event will go to the Fouts family. The rest of the proceeds will go towards the police department’s Christmas and Thanksgiving programs.

Bevard asks people to bring their family out for hamburgers and hot dogs, to check out some great cars with some great people and to help Bartlesville’s own. A Go Fund Me account has also been set up to help the Fouts family.
