Levi chose a career in the force because he wanted to help his community. He worked in Chicago for a decade before leaving for the Big Apple. Being a police officer was Levi’s proudest accomplishment.

For as long as he could remember, he wanted to work in New York. He dreamed of helping the residents in any way he could, and when he spotted the black dog walking the snowy streets, he knew he had to intervene.

He Loved Dogs

Levi loved dogs. He always thought of himself as a dog person. He even had a German Shepherd who he loved more than anything in the world.

He didn’t care if it was a stray or a dog out for a walk when he spotted that pup facing the frigid early snow that day. It was freezing outside, and he knew that he needed to help get the dog to a warmer location. He had no clue what he was getting himself into.

An Ordinary Morning

The morning the incident occurred was nothing out of the usual. He woke up at 6 am and got ready for work. He was out of the house by 7 am and on his way to work.

When Levi arrived at work, he noticed that more people were there than usual despite the dangerous road conditions due to the previous night’s snow. Levi knew that it was the safest option to wait for the snow to be cleared, but the residents of New York might need somebody to help them.
