A police officer in South Carolina was called to a Hardee's restaurant to remove a homeless man "asking for scraps" from the establishment. However, when Horry County Police Officer CJ Mullinax responded to the call, instead of taking the man away, he pulled out his wallet and offered to buy him a meal in a touching gesture.
An employee at the restaurant, Victoria Paige Summer, posted about the encounter on Facebook on Saturday along with a 20-second video showing the police officer standing next to the man at the register. Paige Summer, in her post, said: "[He] handled the situation amazingly!”
