Despite the misfortune of a Florida police officer who was denied service at an Arby's earlier this week, not all officers are having bad experiences during their lunch breaks.
On Thursday, three police officers in Baton Rouge, La. stopped at the Ichiban Sushi Bar & Japanese Grill off Essen Lane and got a surprise when they reached for the check at the end of their meal.
Their waitress, named Crystal, wrote them a note and paid for their lunch.
"Thank you for what y'all do for us every day. Have a safe and bless day," the note reads. "I thought the least I could do is buy lunch."
The officers -- Brandon Blust, Dustin Conde and Fred Thorton were so touched by her actions sent the receipt to the department's Public Information Office along with a note to share on its Facebook page.
"Crystal at Ichiban did this great gesture of kindness," the officers' note reads. "When we thanked her she broke down in tears and told us how sad she was because of how people have been targeting police. We all couldn't stop from sharing this emotional moment and how much we appreciate the great people of this city."
