As a thank you, area business owners honored the Broken Arrow Police Department August 13. They provided officers with lunch and tickets to see a special screening of "You Are Here."

It's a documentary about how a community welcomed nearly 6,500 people when their planes were forced to land in Canada following the 9/11 terrorist attacks.

"I watched this movie - I got a screening of it, and it made me think of my own community and just wanted to take care of those who are willing run into a burning building and help those who can't help themselves," said Brian Dean, co-owner of Water's Edge Winery.

They are asking people to use the hashtag #youarehere to share other stories of people in the community giving back.
