In chilled temperatures, on the brink of dropping dangerously low for Georgia, a homeless man in need of warmth stands by the side of an interstate exit. He holds a sign that reads: “Waiting on a blessing, anything helps.”
This was the scene Gwinnett County Police Sgt. Todd Heller, 39, witnessed while driving an off-ramp of the highway on Jan. 17. “It was around 11 a.m., I believe,” the officer tells The Epoch Times, speaking of the encounter. He describes the individual as a black man in his late 20s or early 30s.
