Polis Bantu Pengemis


Seorang anggota polis New York menjadi bualan hangat apabila perbuatannya menghadiahkan sepasang but kepada seorang pengemis yang berkaki ayam dirakam oleh seorang pelancong Arizona, Jennifer Foster.


Pegawai polis, Larry DePrimo yang berusia 25 tahun melihat lelaki itu tidak memakai kasut dalam cuaca sejuk di Seventh Avenue pada pukul 9:30 malam. Dia bergegas ke kedai kasut Skechers dan membeli sepasang but untuk lelaki itu. Kemudian, dia ke kedai lain pula untuk membelikan stokin.



“I went up to him and said, ‘Where are your shoes?’ ” DePrimo recalled. “And he said, ‘It’s OK. I’ve never had a pair of shoes, but God bless you.’

“And that had really taken me aback, because this gentleman had enough heart to say God bless me, and he didn’t even have a pair of socks!”

“I said, ‘Listen, I’d like to buy a pair of boots, something that’s going to last awhile,’ ” he recalled.

Saleswoman Kanissia Goslyn, 20, waited on the kindhearted cop.

“He said, ‘This guy outside is shaking, and he doesn’t have any shoes on. He looks like he’s dying,’ ” Goslyn told The Post.

“I asked what he needed, and he said he just wanted anything warm.”

DePrimo went out to ask the man his shoe size, and Goslyn found a pair of size 12, $99 “Skechers North” black boots lined with Thinsulate insulation.

“We gave him a 50 percent discount because of his kindness,” she said.

DePrimo also ran out and bought socks from another store.

“When I brought out the shoes, he had a smile from ear to ear — it was absolutely amazing,” DePrimo said of the homeless man.


Tidak menyedari perlakuannya diamati, DePrimo memakaikan stokin dan kasut kepada pengemis berkenaan. Tidak lama kemudian, Foster menghantar gambar yang dirakamnya kepada NYPD, gambar itu seterusnya dimuatnaik ke Facebook NYPD. Ketika topik ini ditulis, gambar berkenaan sudah mendapat 616,315 like dan 219,401 share di Facebook.
