Firefighters and police officers from around the U.S. compete variety of competitions like karate and bench press. The same-day edit captures the activities in slow motion. The week long Can-Am Fire & Police Games are hosted for the first time in York, PA. For the York Daily Record.

This week, the Can-Am Police-Fire games comes to York County. My job is to cover the games each day with a video, unless breaking news happens when a tractor-trailer that happens to roll on its side for the day.
