A man in Bennettsville, South Carolina posted a video of a police officer playing football with a group of kids that has now gone viral.

According to Buzzfeed and Bennettsville Police Chief Larry McNeil, Officer Mullinax “does this all the time.” McNeil said the dpartment has encouraged its officers to take time out of their days and interact with citizens for the last eight or nine years. He said all his officers do similar activities with citizens.
