Carrie Underwood has offered up a $10k donation to a police officer that was recently injured in the state of Oklahoma. The officer, a close childhood friend of Underwood’s, was severely injured when he was involved in a roll over car accident earlier this month. Following the accident, friends and family of officer Justin Durrett set up a GoFundMe page to help with his recovery: “Justin Durrett, Assistant Police Chief of Checotah, was in an accident 2/11/2018. On his way to work, he slid off the road, rolled his truck; he was ejected from his truck. Then the truck landed on him. It’s by the grace of God this man is alive. Not only alive but responsive,” reads the page. A local news reporter in the area later confirmed that Underwood had stepped up to the plate with the considerable donation: “DONATION FOR DURRETT: Checotah native and country superstar @carrieunderwood has donated $10,000 to Checotah Assistant Police Chief Justin Durrett. The two were childhood friends who grew up going to the same church. Durrett broke his neck in a crash on his way to work Sunday,” wrote the reporter via Instagram. Copyright(c) 2018 RTTNews.com.
