A Gilbert family received a little Christmas miracle from the Gilbert Police Department after their daughter's bike was stolen at a park.
A Gilbert family had the police pay a visit to their home this week, but it was far from a typical visit. It all started after a little girl's beloved bike was stolen. The family was preparing to add a new bike to their daughter's Christmas list. Instead, they were the recipients of a very sweet holiday gesture. Six-year-old Hallie Hayes loves riding her bike, but on a recent outing in her neighborhood with dad, she ended up coming home on two feet instead of two wheels.
Instead, an officer with Gilbert Police took notice of the theft and when Jessica filed a police report, the department decided to step in."They showed up the next day. They called me and they were like 'Can you keep her up late?' and I kept her up," Jessica said. The next day, they brought her a new bike and they brought her a helmet the following day.Hallie showed us firsthand her skills on her new bike."It's kind of pretty, I like it.
