Fresno County deputies surprise 5th grader with new clothes
It all started when the 5th grader's friend, Amanda called the sheriff's office to report Eyleeen was feeling down.
FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A call for help brought deputies to a Fresno County school, but not for any trouble.
They responded to a little girl who just needed a little love.
Eyleen Biterbo received a bag full of clothing and other gifts when deputies made a special delivery Friday to Caruthers Elementary School.
It all started when the 5th grader's friend, Amanda called the sheriff's office to report Eyleeen was feeling down because of some classmate bullying.
Three deputies, Hugo Martinez, Monty Vito and Joseph Adolph were touched by the story and pooled their money together to go shopping for Eyleen, bringing the gifts to school.
Eyleen even got a tour of the deputies' patrol car.
Amanda also received a Starbucks gift card for being such a great friend.
