Police and Santa Deliver Surprise to Kid Whose Only Christmas Wish Was for Dad to Get New Car
A little boy from Rome, New York, got a special surprise from Santa on December 16, after he said he’d give up his own Christmas present in order to help out his dad.
Ten-year-old Xander wrote a letter to Santa to say that he would give up the only thing he wanted, a gaming system, if his father could get a new car.
After Xander wrote the letter, police said the “amazing staff at Carbone Honda presented Xander’s dad, AJ, with a new vehicle!”
However, Santa and his friends at the police department decided that Xander should also be rewarded for his selfless act, and arranged a visit to the boy’s home to gift him the gaming computer of his dreams.
