SCARBOROUGH, Maine — Valentine's Day can be difficult for those who are dealing with the recent loss of a loved one. 

That's why the Scarborough Police Department delivered gifts to try and make their struggle a little bit easier this holiday.

"I think this is a good way for people to have interactions with the police department that are positive," officer Holly Thompson said. 

The officers visited roughly 30 homes and delivered donated chocolates from Len Libby's Candies, as well as handmade cards by the school community.

"People did not expect us. They were emotionally overcome, as well as I was. The reaction was a very positive moment," officer Eric Greenleaf said.
