What happened next has people saying Trooper Genslau went above and beyond his duty to serve and protect

Trooper Genslau shared with CBS Detroit why he offered to give Alan a ride

"Just a short 20-minute car ride to potentially change his life makes it all worth it, I don't do this for the pats on the back or the shout-outs, but to help somebody when we can, when it's appropriate, it's fitting for our job. We signed up to protect and serve, and in most opinions, that's serving and protecting someone."

Alan ended up going to the interview and the best part of this story is that he got the job!

Alan was so thankful for the ride and landing the job that he really needed.

"Just to be able to go home and know that I am starting here, and I'm going to be getting a paycheck soon, it's a huge relief."
