Biddeford Mayor Marty Groman is promoting a community event to support the family of Sergeant Jacob Walter Beck, who was killed in a car crash in December. The event, called Mayor’s Night Out, will take place on Wednesday night, with 18 local restaurants participating by donating a portion of their proceeds or offering donation links. The mayor and other local dignitaries will attend, and celebrities might be present. Additionally, donations can be made online through the Trooper Black Foundation. The family of Sergeant Beck is deeply grateful for the support.
