God blesses us with some dedicated police officers that serve and protect their communities. Now, another story about a kind officer has come out and it is warming our hearts. The story was shared by a woman named Caryl Soucy.
Soucy had just dropped her son off at school when she heard what she thought was her tire going flat. She found the first place to stop to check on what was happening, which happened to be a vacant lot. As she was outside her car looking at her tire she felt a tap on the shoulder and turned around. Now, she’ll never look at things the same way again.
“I pulled out the worst jack on earth and my T-bar and tried to start changing my tire,” Soucy wrote in a social media post.
But, she hadn’t been working very long before she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned around and saw a police officer, who has now been identified in reports as Officer Clark, standing over her. The kind officer offered his assistance and wanted to make sure Soucy got back on the road safely.
“He didn’t even ask if I needed help or what happened, he just started helping me,” she added.
Soucy allowed him to take over.
“He changed my flat faster than I’ve ever seen someone change one and considering the tools I had for him to work with, it was quite impressive,” she wrote.
In a matter of minutes, her day was made better simply because the cop happened to pass by at the right time and saw an opportunity to do something for someone else when most wouldn’t bother with other people’s problems.
Now, Soucy hoped her story would let others know about how easy it is to make someone’s day. “Please share this around so that he will know what his kindness and compassion meant to me,” she added.
