Mexican Border State Cops Deliver Christmas Gifts to Needy Families
State police in Tamaulipas delivered toys to children from low-income families as part of a yearly tradition among officers to pool resources.
The event began on Christmas Day and continues in every major city in the border state. Matamoros transit police also joined to deliver approximately 200 presents in the border city.
Similar events took place in Reynosa, Rio Bravo, Camargo, Ciudad Mier, and in the Tampico Metropolitan area. Officers delivered candies, toys, and piñatas to children.
This year, officers wore masks and sprayed the toys before giving them to children.
According to Tamaulipas state officials, the event began several years ago when a group of officers took the initiative to start collecting toys. The event has spread and continues on a volunteer basis.
