Officer's Kindness Leads to Homeless Woman's New Start

Officer's Kindness Leads to Homeless Woman's New Start

A police officer in Syracuse saw a woman struggling to carry groceries up a hill.

He offered her a ride to the cemetery where her husband is buried.

They talked about their lives, and the officer later found out she had been living in the cemetery for eight months.

The officer helped her get a new home and raised money to support her.

Now, she is safe and warm, and they have become good friends.

She believes her faith led her to the officer who helped her.
