Christmas was Saved

A good story turned bad when...
Hours before Christmas eve, a burglar broke into their cellar and stole the Christmas gifts.
A bad story turned good when...
The policemen saved the day for this poor family. They gave the children sweets and two teddy bears in police uniforms. Not only that... they also got in touch with the town mayor, Rainer Lammers. The mayor, like the police men, were so touched by the story that he dipped into the city's funds and gave the family $263 to buy new presents.
Problem was...
It was late on Christmas Eve. Stores have already closed.
Thank God, there was another good soul who happened to own a store. He agreed to open his store and let the father buy new toys.
Christmas spirit at its best.
