Man who commutes to work on foot brought to tears by Roeland Park officer’s good deed

ROELAND PARK, Kan. -- The Roeland Park Police Department is making headlines again -- for good deeds.

In July, an officer helped a young mother who was caught stealing diapers. She was later booked on federal drug charges, but officers say nothing is going to stop them from being good Samaritans.

What one officer did this week, is proof. Following a call for suspicious person at a park, officers arrived to find a greater story.

“Sometimes I have to sleep outside because I want to keep my job. That's just how it is,” Samuel Meixueiro said.


Good story for a change
