MICHIGAN – A teen's 13th birthday party invitation was met with an overwhelming response from dozens of Michigan officers.

The birthday boy was given with a bike (including a helmet, of course), a tour of a Davison-Richfield firetruck and a ride in an MSP cruiser.
"When a special boy in our community invites the police and fire department to come to his birthday...they do!!!!" Sclater wrote in the post.
Sclater's post has been met with an outpouring of support and birthday wishes nationwide.
"This brought tears to my grown (expletive) eyes," commented Jesse Madrid, of California. "Awesome job to everyone who participated in making this blessed young man's birthday special. I love the story. God bless everyone involved, something I have to complain about is why wasn't I invited?"
