Cop photo goes viral
Cop photo goes viral, a photograph of the cop goes viral a day after it was taken. On April 23, CBS News reported that a kind police officer ran to a local store to buy milk for a family that was in lockdown in Watertown, Mass. after a manhunt took over the area on Friday. The family evidently ran out of milk but they could not leave their home because there was a terrorist on the loose.
The photo of the officer popped up on Facebook the day after Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was captured by police. It has made lists of several "amazing moments" that have transpired since the horrific Boston Marathon bombings that took place on April 15. Many people in Watertown and the surrounding areas were terrified during the lockdown and many stayed inside and hoped for the nightmare to be over soon.
After the cop photo goes viral, people find themselves more thankful than before for the level of safety provided by police and the FBI over the course of the day on Friday. It wasn't until the evening that they experienced a huge relief: Tsarnaev was found hiding out in a neighbor's boat and was taken into custody. Still, seeing the photo of the officer bringing the family milk shows just how intense things were -- people could not go outside and were advised to keep away from windows and doors and keep everything locked.
Surely residents didn't expect to be holed up in their homes on Friday and it's not surprising that a family ran out of a staple like milk -- no one expected any of this to go down. It was impossible to predict and it was frightening for many people in Massachusetts.
The cop photo that went viral is now making national news. It is unclear who snapped the pic or who the officer was. It has been reported that he was Brookline PD.
