Birthday Boy Justin with Lamar Police Chief Kevin Ridder

The Lamar Police Deparment shared this adorable story on their Facebook page:

“Officers responded to Willow Creek Park on a report of a special birthday party having cake without them! Chief Ridder responded after learning the birthday boy had a really cool motorcycle! Justin, now age 6, happily shared with all responding officers (and office clerks).

The Lamar Police Department was honored to have received a birthday party invitation from this young man. Happy Birthday, Justin! We hope you had a GREAT day and thank you for letting us be a part of it! Awesome Bike too!

P.S. The cupcakes were great!”
