"Demarco & [Gormely] take elderly women shopping with their own funds after home visit #ItsWhatWeDo," the precinct tweeted.
The two officers realized the woman did not have adequate food in her home, so they took her to a nearby ShopRite.

DeMarco and Gormely are assigned to a domestic violence unit.
