GWINNETT COUNTY, Ga. (WSVN) — Two police officers in Georgia are being recognized for going above and beyond the call of duty for a woman and her baby girl.
Gwinnett County Police shared video on Twitter showing the heartfelt gesture.
The video captures the officers, identified as Sgt. Nick Boney and officer Jimmy Wilson, stopping to help a woman standing on the side of the road in the cold.
Boney offered the woman a ride home, and the woman accepted, telling him she was trying to make it home so she could celebrate her daughter’s birthday.
As Boney escorted the woman to her car, he has Wilson go and pick up a birthday cake for the girl.
Once they make it to the family’s home, they surprise the family with the birthday cake.
The officers stick around and greet the woman’s children and also sing “Happy Birthday.”
According to Fox 5, the caring moment was found during an audit of body camera footage, and the officers did not tell their superiors about the moment.
