WICHITA FALLS, Texas (KAUZ) – Community members turned out in droves for a fundraiser for injured DPS Officer Patrick Timms, who was injured in an off-duty accident earlier this month.

The fundraiser was held at the Elks Lodge and included live music, a silent auction and a special lunch deal, with proceeds going to Timms and his family.

Sgt. DPS. Adrian Briseno said Timms’ impact on the community was reflected in how many people came out to support him.

“He’s well known, he’s done a lot for a lot of people here, and we just, you know, we just want to show our appreciation for him, for everything he’s done, not only for the department, but for this community here. And as you can tell, there are a lot of people who have come forward to show their support for him,” Briseno said.
