Neil Mitchell has been touched by a story coming out of the United States.

A seven-year-old boy was found trying to sell his stuffed teddy bear so he could buy food.

Police Officer Steve Dunham found the boy and came to his aid.

He spoke with Neil on Wednesday.

‘He hadn’t eaten in days,’ he explained.

The boy’s parents have since been charged.
