Officer Serving Others
When he learned the man needed food, the officer drove to a local gas station/food mart that he knew was still open on Christmas night. He purchased enough food to last the man the night.“[The man] was grateful for this officer’s kind act, as was our witness and as is our police department.”These simple acts are more frequent than realized by the officers who work to protect their communities. They do not help others for recognition but rather because they see it as a way to "give back". Officer Hutchings had no idea that he had been watched or photographed that night. He was simply trying to help a man in need. It wasn't until he was mentioned in a social media post by his supervisors that he learned about the witness. credit: Facebook/St. George Police Department Hearing of these simple acts of kindness helps us to remember that officers' jobs are not only to enforce laws but that they are a helpful part of our communities. They desire to serve others and often it is with simple acts of a "hand up" when no one is looking. It's a good lesson for us all to take every opportunity to be a blessing to others!
