Chicago Police Officers Help Elderly Woman Home And Fill Her Empty Cabinets With Food
Two Chicago police officers were being praised Friday for helping a lost woman find her way home and filling her empty cabinets with food.
Officers Haro and McDonald were responding to call of a found person on Thursday when they arrived to find an elderly woman who appeared to be lost and disoriented, according to a post on the Chicago Police Department’s Facebook page.
The woman was pushing her walker and had apparently been wandering around in the same area for hours, the post stated.
When the officers tried to talk to her it became clear she was “nonverbal and appeared to have difficulty communicating,” according to the post.
So Officer Haro began to write questions for the woman, who was then able to respond.
After learning the woman lived only a few blocks away, the officers walked her to her residence, according to the department.
Once inside her home, the officers discovered that she lived alone and had very little food on hand.
Both officers went out to buy groceries and stocked the woman’s refrigerator and cabinets with food, the posted stated.
They were thanked by the woman with tears and a hug.

Inmates save life of guard
Inmates in Texas broke out of their cell to save a guard having a heart attack.
On June 23, security cameras at Parker County Prison caught inmates breaking out of their cell when they noticed that a guard was suffering a heart attack.
After they broke through the lock, the inmates began to yell and kick doors, hoping to get the attention of other guards on duty — even though they knew it was a risky choice.
“We were worried they’re going to come with guns drawn on us,” inmate Nick Kelton told WFAA.
Guards came rushing to the scene and returned the prisoners to the cell. Deputies administered CPR until paramedics came and used a defibrillator to revive the unresponsive guard.
“He could have been there 15 minutes before any other staff walked in and found him,” he said.
When asked why they stepped up the help the guard, one inmate had a simple answer:
“It never crossed my mind not to help whether he’s got a gun or a badge. If he falls down, I’m gonna help him.”
