A single father riding the Chicago rapid transit system gave a homeless man a pair of socks and the shoes off his own feet to replace the man’s worn sneakers.

Witness Jessica Bell says she and the others close enough to see the exchange between good Samaritan Maurice Anderson and the homeless man were floored.

Anderson, a single father from Chicago, recently took a job as a service technician to make ends meet. He was returning to Chicago Friday evening after working in Kentucky for the week.

“He was bleeding through his socks. So, my gut said take them off and give them to him. I asked him what size shoe he wears. He said 12. I wear 12, as well,” Anderson said.

The father took off his boots and passed them to the other man. He then opened his suitcase and gave him a pair of socks as well, according to Bell.

Anderson says the man was overjoyed.
