On Saturday, June 27, 2026, at approximately 11:50 a.m., Lieutenant James Alford of the Richland Police Department was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident while participating in a benefit ride for injured Deputy Rodney Yates.
James was airlifted to Forrest General Hospital where he underwent emergency surgery and now faces a long and difficult recovery that will include months of physical therapy and rehabilitation. At this time, it is expected that he will be unable to return to work for at least six to nine months.
While workers' compensation will assist with his medical expenses and a portion of his income, there will still be significant financial challenges for James and his family. James and his wife, Charlee, are the loving parents of a 9-year-old daughter and a 6-year-old son, and they work hard every day to provide for their family.
What began as a day dedicated to supporting another injured law enforcement officer became a life-changing tragedy for James and everyone involved.
Lieutenant Alford has spent his career serving and protecting the citizens of Richland, answering every call for service with courage, professionalism, and selflessness. Now, he needs our support.
Many have reached out and asked how to support. The best way would be in the form of gift cards. Those can be mailed to
