A Policing Act Of Kindness After Little Boy In Detroit Calls 911 To Chat About Soccer

After doing laundry last Saturday, Ken Porter noticed a missed call on his phone from the local police department.

“When I returned the call, I learned that my 4-year-old had called 911 and struck up a conversation about soccer and swimming,” Micah’s father told GNN.

“What sounded like the start of a crisis turned into one of the most unforgettable moments of my two sons’ lives.”

18 police vehicles ended up at their home in Farmington Hills, Michigan, over the next day—a parade of kindness sparked by the child’s enthusiasm.

“Instead of treating it as a misuse of 911, the officers invited my sons, Micah and Mitch, to tour their patrol cars, test the sirens, and speak on the loudspeaker.

During the visit, Micah proudly mentioned that the next day would be his big brother Mitch’s 7th birthday, and one of the officers mentioned he might stop by to celebrate.

“The next morning, as we were leaving for Mitch’s birthday breakfast, nearly ten police cars filled our street.

“Officers were waiting in the yard with gifts, and made Mitch an honorary officer with a sticker badge and a toy police hat. Every single officer wished him a happy birthday.”

And the kindness didn’t stop there.

Later that evening, a second shift of officers returned—this time with a soccer goal net that they purchased, ready to play a game. They even introduced Mitch and Micah to the police K9 dog named Kane.

“This simple act of kindness transformed into a story of empathy, joy, and community my sons will never forget,” said Mr. Porter.

“We are deeply grateful to the Farmington Hills Police Department for showing what good policing looks like at its very best.
