Officer's Act of Kindness at Gas Station Goes Viral

“An elderly woman came into my station today and gave me $3 in change to put on her gas pump. A police officer was standing behind her and happened to hear the amount and saw she was using a cane, struggling to walk back to her car. He went outside and told her to sit in the car as he would pump the gas for her. After a few minutes of getting to know one another he realized she was really struggling and didnā€™t have any gas or money left. The $3 will only get her so far. He told her to hang tight- came inside and put her another $20 out of his pocket. He went back and finished pumping and she told him her husband had recently passed away and sheā€™s stuck paying all their bills and is behind every month. This $20 really helped her! She would of most likely ended up running out of gas. Nowadays thereā€™s so much negativity towards police officers. No one respects them. We hear all the complaints and ā€œbadā€ stories. Iā€™m not saying every officer is perfect, Iā€™m sure some are at fault at times. We all make mistakes- but we should all respect, appreciate, and thank them for what they do. Leaving your family everyday to try and make sure everyoneā€™s elseā€™s is safe can be tough. Think about it- who do you call when youā€™re in danger? Whoā€™s running in harms way as youā€™re running away? To all the men and women in blue I THANK YOU for your service!”
