Officer Selvia told the little girl he didn’t have any police stickers to thank her, so he wrote her a ticket instead.

“You know what you’re being charged with? Being too cute and having the bluest eyes I’ve seen all day,” Officer Selvia can be heard saying in newly released body camera footage.

It’s unclear what incident police were working in the area, but they say it was a particularly hot day, so they are grateful for the little girl’s kindness.

“We hope she will keep [the ticket] forever,” the police department wrote.
