Cheektowaga Police Department initially asked for help in identifying “Merry Christmas Jay,” after they found his note apologizing for breaking into the school during the blizzard.
Jay Withey's truck was running low on fuel as he was left stranded in Cheektowaga, New York, just east of Buffalo, on Friday, Dec. 23. As he began to encounter more people who were stuck outdoors with nowhere to go, he decided to seek refuge inside Pine Hill School.
In their message, they shared photos from the surveillance video which showed the people gathered inside. They also shared the note Withey left apologizing for breaking into the school and explaining his situation. They also shared a photo that Withey gave them that showed him with the people he helped that night. “Jay said they are all now like family and planning a SUMMER get together,” the caption read.
