Boston Police Officer Helps Man Tie Necktie
BOSTON (CBS)--Boston police officers are used to people asking them for help.
But one officer took it a step further Sunday, when a man approached him with a unique problem.
The officer was on his regular tour of duty in Hyde Park, and the man was on his way to church. The problem was he didn't know how to tie his necktie.
"In a big city like Boston, small gestures mean a lot, they define our neighborhoods and bring us closer together as a community - it's the little things that make all the difference," police wrote on bpdnews.com.
The officer helped the man without hesitation, and said he was happy to help.
""It's important for people to see and understand that community policing is our best policing," he said. "When the gentlemen approached looking for help, we were more than happy to assist. In fact, I tied him my best knot, the Eldredge Knot, and he told me he loved it."
