Newly widowed, an 80-year-old with a walker was crossing an Arizona road in broken footwear when a teenager gave him the shoes off his feet, then bought him peanut M&M's.
Practice puzzle. It does not touch your streak or today's stats.
Kept 'M&M's' or 'bought'? That is the second kind thing he did and the strongest wrong word in the sentence, but the shoes came first, and the shoes are why anyone filmed it. Kept 'widowed'? It is the saddest fact here, and Jordan only learned it later, at the man's front door. It is what had happened to the man, not what Jordan did. Kept 'walker', 'broken' or 'footwear'? That is why he needed the shoes. Kept 'Arizona' or 'road'? That is where. This one really happened. On Monday 5 October Jordan Hope, 18, was driving along John Wayne Parkway in Maricopa, Arizona, when he saw an older man with a walker trying to cross the busy street in a pair of shoes that were barely holding together. He stopped the car, got out, took the size 13 Nike slides off his own feet and gave them to him. Yareli Madrid filmed part of it from a drug store car park, and the City of Maricopa shared the video. Jordan then followed the man into the drug store, helped him get his prescription, bought him his favourite sweets, peanut M&M's, called him a ride and followed it to his house to see him inside. That was when he learned the man was 80 and had lost his wife two weeks before. 'You don't know what they're going through,' Jordan told ABC15. The two plan to stay in touch, and Jordan has started a crowdfunding page for him.
