Police officers in Manhattan, Kansas, were on hand to help a broken down truck driver with an outside of the box fix.
In a July 9 Facebook post, the Riley County Police Department detailed how they used a pair of handcuffs for an impromptu mechanical fix.

“Handcuffs aren’t always used to secure suspects. Sometimes you need them for a makeshift hose clamp! Sergeant Wood and Officer Melvin helped this local truck driver in need make it home with a pair of plastic flex cuffs,” police said.
