Good story out of Sterling Heights, MI. An officer saved a choking infant. Police officers are out there every day doing this kind of good work. This one has gone viral because the video is available. This gives civilians great CONTEXT and allows them to see what law enforcement faces each and every day. That context is important in helping people understand your identity (who you are and what you do).
The Detroit Free Press ran the below followup story because the officer was invited to the child’s first birthday party. That kind of relationship-building is HUGE. Way to go!
