In Michigan this past weekend, Emmett Township Public Safety Officer Ben Hall was on his patrol Saturday when he pulled over a vehicle for a traffic violation.
He then noticed a small child in the car who was wearing a seat belt but not in a child's car seat. The young mother told Officer Hall that she understood the importance of having the child in a car seat, but could not afford one because of her limited income.
Rather than give the woman a traffic ticket, Officer Hall had her pull into a Walmart parking lot, where he went inside and purchased a child seat for her.
It bears repeating: Rather than give the woman a traffic ticket, he purchased a child seat for her.
