Two firefighters from the North Davis Fire District went viral after they helped calm a young girl shaken up by an accident.

According to a post shared to Facebook, Battalion Chief Allen Hadley and Captain Kevin Lloyd responded to an accident, when they discovered a young girl who was involved was unhurt but very scared.

“After noticing the child was holding bottles of fingernail polish, these 2 officers started talking to her about her polish and asked her if she would paint their nails,” the post said.

“Within minutes, the child was calmly paining their nails and had forgotten about the accident she had just experienced.”
