47-year-old Helen Johnson lives together with her two kids, two grandchildren, and a niece in a small rental apartment. Each month, they spend 120 dollars on food, but this time they were left without any funds. The family didn’t eat for a few days, so the woman went to the shop.
She had only 1 dollar and 25 cents. Helen decided to buy some eggs, but she forgot about tax. So, this money wasn’t enough, and she made a thing she had never done before. The woman put 5 eggs in her pockets, but when she was leaving the shop, she accidentally broke them.
The salesman noticed it and called the police. When officer William Stacy arrived, the salesman told about the woman. After a short conversation, the police officer and the salesman decided not to charge against Helen. The woman was free to go home.
The next day, William Stacy came to Helen’s house. He and his police friend brought two truckloads of food to Helen. The woman couldn’t believe her eyes. Her family didn’t see so much food in a long time. She couldn’t find a proper word to say thank you for what police officers had done for her.
This case has changed Helen’s attitude to police. Now, she knows that these guys don’t only arrest criminals, they also help ordinary people in need, and she can always rely on them.
