In the footage, which has now gone viral, a courageous young boy, who identifies himself as five-year-old Nico, called 911 in the middle of the night after spotting what he believed was a terrifying “monster” with “big black teeth” hiding under his brother’s bed.
What followed was one of the most heartwarming police interactions captured on video in recent memory.
The full bodycam footage was originally uploaded to YouTube by The Public Services channel in late April and exploded in popularity after being shared across other platforms.
According to the bodycam timestamp, the incident unfolded in a quiet residential home after midnight on April 19.
Nico, wide awake and terrified, picked up the phone and told the 911 dispatcher, “There’s a monster in my brother’s bed.”
The boy confirmed he had not woken his parents, who were fast asleep upstairs.
Armed with a Nerf gun, goggles, and a face mask for “tactical” protection, the little boy answered the door when the officer arrived.
This might be the best bodycam footage we’ve seen yet:
