Denver Police Officers Help Clean Elderly Woman's Home

DENVER (CBS4) - On Saturday some Denver police officers welcomed a woman home after de-cluttering her home.

The officers volunteered their time, throwing out enough trash to fill four dumpsters. The work took three weeks to complete.

Connie, 94, spent the time at a hotel while the police officers cleaned. She returned to a standing ovation.

"Policemen don't just give tickets, arrest people," Connie said. "They help people, and I love them all."

Connie said it feels like she received a new home.
