JOHNSBURG – The 7-year-old Harvard boy’s feet dangled a few inches above the floor as he sat on a little bench near the shoe display.

Kneeling beside him and helping him try on a snow boot was Dan Sedlock, chief of corrections at the McHenry County Jail and chairman of McHenry County Police Charities.

The boy, Juan, was among about 90 children participating in the Police Charities’ Shop with a Cop program at the Johnsburg Walmart early Sunday. Another 120 were paired with police officers from throughout the county at the Walmart in Crystal Lake.
