BRIDGEVILLE, Pa. — A police officer and the power of social media combined to help a group of kids have fun.

Bridgeville police shared a video of officers and firefighters delivering a basketball hoop to neighborhood kids.

It happened after an officer saw the kids using a recycling bin as a hoop.

He went on Facebook and asked people to donate so the kids could get a real hoop.

Fifteen minutes and one generous donation later, the kids now have everything they need to keep the fun going.
