If there\u2019s one thing I truly admire, it\u2019s when individuals go above and beyond the expectations of their roles to assist others.<\/p>\n
Police officers, firefighters, and medical personnel all contribute in unique ways, and they each perform their duties exceptionally well.<\/p>\n
However, some individuals truly stand out by going the extra mile, doing more than what is required to lift someone\u2019s spirits.<\/p>\n
A wonderful example of this is James Hurst, a police officer from Savannah, Georgia, who recently went out of his way to comfort a lost toddler. A touching photo of his actions has since gone viral.<\/p>\n
In May 2016, a 16-month-old boy was discovered wandering the streets of Savannah, Georgia, without any supervision.<\/p>\n
The police were alerted, and they took him to a hospital to ensure his well-being, as reported by WSAV 3 News.<\/p>\n
During the medical check-up, the little boy became frightened and distressed, but Officer James Hurst remained by his side. He picked the toddler up and provided comfort.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just felt that this child needed someone to be there for him. It was purely instinct; it was humanity. The hospital staff was doing a wonderful job caring for him [but] he was sobbing and crying. I held him, and within minutes, he was asleep on my chest,\u201d James Hurst shared with KTLA 5.<\/p>\n

The special moment was recorded on camera and subsequently shared on the police department\u2019s Facebook page. This week alone, more than 10,000 individuals have liked the photo.<\/p>\n
Numerous news outlets have covered the story, and many have commended the officer\u2019s actions. Hurst himself mentioned that he was merely fulfilling his duties.<\/p>\n
People from all around were moved by officer Hurst\u2019s compassion, yet Hurst feels he was simply doing what was right and doesn\u2019t consider his actions to be anything extraordinary!<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is what we do every day, not just me, but all 600 officers in this department,\u201d he shared with WSAV 3.<\/p>\n

\u201cThroughout the many times I\u2019ve encountered Officer Hurst on the streets, he has consistently exceeded his responsibilities. If you ever have the chance to meet him, please take a moment to shake his hand; he truly is a remarkable person,\u201d someone mentioned, as reported by KTLA.<\/p>\n
The toddler has been placed in the care of social services and is safe, as well as in good health, according to the police.<\/p>\n
