Norwalk police officers are going to The Rockaways, Queens, Sunday to deliver relief supplies to victim's of superstorm Sandy.
The visit will be led by Officer Pat English in his Hot Off The Grill food truck, followed by a convoy of officers carrying food, tools and hygienic products.

The trip is being coordinated through the organization www.596acres.org, whose website contains a list of needed supplies. A special request is made for donations of gasoline containers and anyone who can legally transport gas.
Cash donations are also being accepted.
Donations should be dropped off in the lobby of Police Headquarters at 1 Monroe St., corner of South Main and Monroe streets in South Norwalk.
