A North Carolina Police officer is earning praises on social media for his humanity. He was spotted sharing his lunch, pizza and soda with a homeless woman on the street. A passer-by captured the precious moment and posted on Facebook, and it has since gone viral. The officer Michael Rivers told CNN that it was her shirt that caught his attention. It read, “Homeless. The fastest way of becoming a nobody.” At first, he drove away by greeting her, “Hey.” But did not go very far. He went back and asked if she had her lunch that day, as the officer was on his way to grab his. After discovering that the woman did not eat her meal that day, Officer Rivers bought piazzas from a nearby shop and sat down with her, sharing his lunch with the woman.
