Lowell Police Officer Robert Sturtevant rides the department's new T3 schooter, a gift from the Lowell Housing Authority, at the LHA headquarters yesterday. Looking on, from left, are Capt. Thomas Kennedy, Officer Dave Ferry, Officer Steve O'Neill, Deputy Police Superintendent Arthur Ryan and Mayor Edward "Bud" Caulfield. SUN/DAVID H. BROW

In a related story, a memorial will be held for Lowell Police Officer Robert Sturtevant who has officially died of embarrassment.

Next step will be rascal scooters with beefed up engines.

He is not wearing a helmet! That thing looks like something out of a cartoon. LHA probably donated it because they didn't know how to use it. Notice how far back the mayor and other officers are standing.

 

[DAMM]

It looks like a riced out Segway.

 

[Inspector]

Figured I'd blow this up a little to help some of us who have older eyes. It also helps us to see the uncertain expression on Officer Sturtevant's face. Perhaps we could come up with some captions?

How about..."How come the guys that are wearing actual traditional police uniforms aren't being forced to ride this thing?" "Last time I dress up like the FEDEX driver"

 

[Inspector]

"At least the Sheriff didn't get this."
