This past Friday night during the intense manhunt for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in Watertown, MA, an act of kindness by a Brookline police officer was photographed, and that photo has gone "viral".

During the lock down in the area, Officer John Bradley was informed that a baby needed milk.  Kevin Wells, the father, took the photo of the officer as he arrived carrying two gallons of milk for Holden, Wells' 17-month-old son.

A visiting grandmother from Colorado who was staying in the house informed the officer that the young couple needed milk.  When Officer Bradley returned with a couple of gallons he refused payment.

"We wanted to pay him, but he wouldn't take money from us. He was just so generous", said McKenzie Wells, the boy's mother.

So far, the photo below has been shared over 100,000 times.
