Green Country Officer 'Shocked' Candid Video Of Him Helping Elderly Hits Internet

If you've been on social media at all over the past couple of days, you may have seen a popular video of Cleveland, Okla., police officer Jeremiah Godfrey lending assistance to an elderly couple.

The video that has been viewed nearly 50,000 times and counting was a surprise to Godfrey, even though he had the starring role.

“That shocked me,” Godfrey said with a laugh. “Not only did I not expect someone to record me, but I never would have guessed something that simple would have gotten such a drastic response.”

To Lacey Fawcett, it was a moment worth preserving, and Oklahoma agrees with her, click by Internet click. As she sat in her car at the Homeland store, she did what most of us do in times of curiosity these days -- she hit record on her cell phone.
