CLERMONT COUNTY, Ohio – A police officer and store employees are receiving praise after helping a new mother feed her baby late at night.
Miami Township Police Chief Mike Mills reported that Corporal Hunter Willoughby received an urgent call from a mother who was unable to feed her 1-week-old baby.
In response, Willoughby contacted employees at Meijer. Although the store was closed, the employees were willing to assist and opened the doors for him.
Using his own money, Willoughby purchased formula and bottles and delivered them to the grateful mother, according to the police department.
“You don’t often hear about everything a police officer does during their shift, but I do, and this is an example of the Miami Township Way,” Mills wrote in a Facebook post.
The new mom attempted to repay Willoughby for the formula and bottles, but he declined.
