Heartwarming: Policewoman Buys Homeless Man Breakfast And Sits On Kerb To Eat With Him

This is the moment a kind-hearted policewoman sat down to eat at the side of the road with a homeless man she had just bought breakfast for.

Sitting on a kerb at a petrol station in Ocala, Florida, Sergeant Erica Hay looks over at her eating partner as he unwraps his food.

Sgt Hay had just left a meeting at her headquarters when she spotted the man and bought an extra sandwich and coffee from Dunkin Donuts to give to him on the way back.

And rather than simply giving the man the food, the 20-year-veteran cop decided to eat her breakfast next to him.

Passing driver TiAnna Green snapped the touching moment and posted the picture onto Facebook, where it quickly went viral.

She wrote alongside the photo: “I don’t know this officer, but, I admire her today and everyday (sic).

“Although I was only blessed to witness less than two minutes of her kindness that definitely came from the heart, it truly made my morning!”

Sgt Hay was humble when asked about why she decided to buy food for the homeless man.

She said: ”I didn’t have anyone else to eat breakfast with that morning either.

“He was gracious enough to eat with me as well.”
