In Watertown yesterday when everyone was ordered to stay indoors during a manhunt for a Marathon bombing suspect, one family asked if they could go get milk for their 16 month-old son.
A policeman said no, but returned to the house delivering two gallons of milk from the store. The toddler’s father told Reddit-user ZanePerry that the cop was very humble and would not want the publicity.
But posting the photo without permission gave the rest of us an “Aw-shucks” moment of warmth for the law enforcement community of greater Boston.
