Video captures four high school students helping elderly man

Original airdate: 5/28/2019 | While adults deal with budget woes in the Allentown School District, some William Allen High School students are hoping a good deed changes opinions about them and their classmates.

A gesture of goodwill was caught on video and now it's going viral.

Four William Allen high school students were helping an elderly man down Hamilton Street in Allentown last Friday.

The students say that's after a stranger asked them to help.

"A lady comes to us and she is like 'can you watch that man over there,' and we see the man in a distance," Makayla Ward of Allentown said.

"We saw him walking at a steady pace for a second and then he looked like he was staggering a little bit. He was holding on to things," Jose Cerda said.

"We went up to him, asked him did he need help. He said yeah," Lashante Smith said.

A passerby started recording video.

The students say they eventually had to sit the man down and wait for an ambulance to come.
