FLOYD COUNTY, KY (WOWK) — Floyd County Sheriff John Hunt says he will pay for funeral procession escorts’ fuel costs out-of-pocket due to rising gas prices.

He says this is important and wants to offer it to families.

In a Facebook post from the Floyd County Sheriff’s Department, it says this will not take away from any law enforcement needs.
