Mom Praises Teen Who Crashed Into Her Mailbox

January 23, 2020

A teenager who crashed into a stranger's mailbox and chose honesty and kindness is being praised by thousands on social media.

With roads covered in snow and ice, Owen Sullivan hit a mailbox with his truck, taking it out.

"So I write a little note with some money, and then I go up there, and such a nice lady. I handed her the note and money and she said don't take it!" said Sullivan.

Days later, he couldn't get it off of his mind so he brought over cookies.

What he didn't know was it would be caught on security cameras.

Crystal Collins says after her husband told her the teen brought cookies over, she knew she wanted to post on Facebook and try to find his parents so they knew how great their son is.

"It was really, really refreshing, there's a lot of ugly things in this world, and I wanted to share the post especially with his parents," said Collins.

Now there are hundreds of comments talking about what a great young man he is, and thousands of reactions and shares.
