The Middleton Police Department says that there’s no such thing as a “routine” call when it comes to their officers performing their duty, serving their community.
Officer Andrew Brooks, one day late June, responded to the residence of a local man who said he'd simply been having a rough week and was in need of a friend.
He told the officers he didn’t know what to cook for dinner, nor did he want to go through the trouble. All the while, he kept saying he was hungry.
“Without hesitation, Officer Andrew Brooks utilized the male’s garden and the food he had in the house and made this gentleman dinner,” the police department posted.
They shared a few photos taken at the scene, showing the man with the officer who is seen in uniform, in the man’s kitchen, cooking up eggs and serving him dinner.
“Sometimes a hot meal and someone to talk to is all it takes to lift someone’s spirits and change their perception on things,” the department wrote. “Thank you for going above and beyond Officer Brooks!!!”
For these officers of the Middleton Police Department answering the call of duty, it’s just another day on the job, keeping the peace while serving their community — and sometimes supper — with their whole heart.
