A few weeks ago, Michael, 32, was riding his two-wheeled scooter (滑板车) near the high school when someone asked him if he could ride it. Michael agreed. However, to his surprise, the person took advantage of his kindness and failed to return the scooter. Michael loved the scooter very much and that made him devastated.
Michael called the police. Detective Sergeant Saddler quickly discovered that Michael was a kind and honest person. Touched by his story, Saddler and his partner, Detective Sergeant Coraci made the heartfelt decision to buy Michael the exact same scooter with their own money. When Chief Berlin learned about their plan, he decided that the department (部门) would step in and cover the cost of the new scooter.
On Wednesday, the Roseville Police Department had the pleasure of meeting Michael in person to give him the surprise. Michael couldn’t contain his gratitude (感激) upon hearing the news. After test riding on his new scooter for a while, Michael expressed how the unexpected kindness had turned his hard year around.
Michael shared that the day of the surprise happened to be his birthday. “After taking a few spins on his new scooter, Michael said how he was kind of having a rough year and that yesterday was his birthday,” the department shared. “But... he said after today, he thinks his year is only going to get better!”
