Ka'Shawn Baldwin and Roger Gemoules

Officer Gemoules pulled over a vehicle with expired plates. Upon approaching the car, he found 22-year-old Ka'Shawn Baldwin behind the wheel without a valid driver's license. However, instead of reacting with a ticket, Gemoules took a moment to listen to Baldwin's situation.

Baldwin explained to the officer that he was on his way to a job interview and did not have any other means of transportation. Realizing the importance of the moment and the potential impact a ticket could have on Baldwin's life, Gemoules decided to drive Baldwin to his job interview himself.

"Something came upon me, God, whatever it was, and said, 'Give him a little break.' So that's what I did," Gemoules said.

Baldwin not only made it to the interview on time, but also impressed his potential employers enough to secure the job.

Reflecting on the unexpected turn of events, Baldwin expressed his gratitude, saying, "It meant everything to me."
