A police officer in Minnesota named Matt Siltala had responded to a recent call for a wellness check of an elderly woman in his Orono community.

After verifying that the woman was OK, Officer Siltala asked why her yard was so overgrown.

The woman shared she just didn’t have anyone to mow it for her anymore, so the kind officer grabbed her mower and cut the front yard.

Kindness and compassion is what it’s all about, and we love reading stories about people helping people.
