The driver, who had lived in Gwinnett County for over 30 years, was visibly frustrated and upset as she explained her situation.
"I'm kind of frustrated because I don't have money to buy gas," she shared with the officer.
Understanding her distress, Lt. Cheek first pushed her vehicle out of the roadway to ensure her safety. But he didn’t stop there—he also took it upon himself to fill her gas tank so she could make it home safely.
