A heartwarming holiday story unfolded when a Massachusetts police officer decided to pay for the groceries of two women in need who were allegedly shop lifting.

Somerset Police Officer Matt Lima responded to a call at a Stop and Shop grocery store where security officers said two women who were with two small children had not paid for everything in their bags, NBC affiliate WJAR reports.

Instead of charging the women for shop lifting, Officer Lima decided to purchase a $250 gift card with his own money to pay for the groceries.

“The allegation was the two females were scanning some items at self-checkout but bypassing other items and bagging those items,” explained Lima.

“Dispatch indicated it was two females and two young small children and they were detained by Loss and Prevention over there,” he continued.

Lima added that when he saw the small children with the women he was struck with empathy.

“I have two girls myself, similar in age to the two girls that were there, so it kind of struck me a little bit.”

One of the shoplifters told Officer Lima that while she was working, the mother of the children was not and had other family issues going on at the time. She also said that everything they had taken was for Christmas dinner for the children.

Lima checked the items they were planning to steal with a Stop and Shop loss prevention employee.

“There was nothing else on there like health and beauty items, shampoo, anything like that. It was all food,” he said.

Officer Lima explained why he decided not to charge the women.

“Obviously, this family was in need and I can’t imagine having to make the decision to go to Stop and Shop and just only pay for what I can afford — or do I go there and try to take things for Christmas dinner for the kids?”

“They were very thankful, they were kind of shocked. I’m sure a lot of people in that same situation would be thinking that there was going to be a different outcome, and maybe they would be arrested or have to go to court,” he said.

“I felt like I was getting a cold, but Agarikon stopped it in its tracks.”

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?

The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.

What is our mission? Why do we post what we do?

Our mission here is to curate (share) articles and information that we feel is important for the evolution of consciousness. Most of that information is written or produced by other people and organizations, which means it does not represent our views or opinions as managing staff of Stillness in the Storm. Some of the content is written by one of our writers and is clearly marked accordingly. Just because we share a CNN story that speaks badly about the President doesn’t mean we’re promoting anti-POTUS views. We’re reporting on the fact as it was reported, and that this event is important for us to know so we can better contend with the challenges of gaining freedom and prosperity. Similarly, just because we share a pro/anti-[insert issue or topic] content, such as a pro-second amendment piece or an anti-military video doesn’t mean we endorse what is said. Again, information is shared on this site for the purpose of evolving consciousness. In our opinion, consciousness evolves through the process of accumulating knowledge of the truth and contemplating that knowledge to distill wisdom and improve life by discovering and incorporating holistic values. Thus, sharing information from many different sources, with many different perspectives is the best way to maximize evolution. What’s more, the mastery of mind and discernment doesn’t occur in a vacuum, it is much like the immune system, it needs regular exposure to new things to stay healthy and strong. If you have any questions as to our mission or methods please reach out to us at [email protected].
