Police officers put their lives on the line every day to protect members of their communities. Now, the story of one New Hampshire police officer is going viral after he went above and beyond to help someone in need.

Last month, Master Patrol Officer Tyler Coady of the Bow Police Department became a viral sensation after photos of him performing a very good deed made the rounds on the internet.

It all started when Officer Coady responded to a fire at Crossroads Community Church. Thankfully, nobody was inside the church when the fire broke out.

Afterwards, Coady saw a woman walking home from the grocery store and was “concerned” about getting her purchases home. Despite the fact that Coady had already had a busy day dealing with the fire, he immediately leapt to action and carried her groceries home for her uphill on foot.

“Great job going above and beyond and showing compassion, and solving the problem,” InfoNH wrote of Coady’s actions in the post that has since gone viral.

“Thank you Officer Coady! So typical of our Bow PD. [Love] our town!” one social media user wrote.

“This is what makes America great!” another posted in agreement.

“Good deed well done officer,” one fan said.

“And thanks to all the others who do this and didn’t get their picture taken,” another user chimed in.

This is just one more example of the wonderful dedication our police officers have in serving and protecting our communities! SHARE this story so your friends and family can see this as well!
