When the officer discovered the young man’s story, he surprised him with an incredible gesture.

Here’s something to brighten your day: A police officer was summoned to remove a young man from a specific area, but after learning his tale, he performed a remarkable act of charity.

According to a Facebook post from the City of Hapeville Police Department in Georgia, Officer Colleran responded to a call about a young man being “removed from the area.”

When Colleran got on the scene, he recognized that the teenager was not causing any issues. He was seeking for yard work, such as picking weeds or cutting grass, in order to save money for a PlayStation.

“The young man was polite, respectful, and truthful,” according to the department’s post. “Officer Colleran, himself a gamer, was impressed with the young man and thought he could assist him in reaching his goal.”

Officer Colleran paid the boy a visit sometime later. He led him to the trunk of his car and opened it to reveal a huge surprise: a brand new PlayStation 5!

Officer Colleran and his pals pooled their resources to purchase the gaming system that the young guy had been saving for. They also purchased him a gift card for an internet membership, and Colleran promised to play with him online.

The tale touched many people’s hearts, with many applauding the officer for taking the time to teach such valuable lessons and for displaying empathy for the young man.

“This is fantastic, and not just because the officer bought him a PlayStation. “Because he cared, he listened rather than simply reacting to the phone call,” one reader noted. He demonstrated compassion and humanity… we need more officers like him.”

What a touching story! Thank you for your compassion and for providing this young man with a memorable surprise!
