Watch: Minnesota police officer joins 92-year-old woman for a dance break in viral video

An Austin, Minnesota, police officer's small act of kindness earlier this month has been warming hearts across the nation.

Sgt. Kim Lenz, a 10-year veteran of the Austin Police Department, had seen Millie Seiver dancing around the streets several times, but a few weeks ago she decided to finally approach the 92-year-old grandmother.

"She had a Walkman and was listening to 99.9," Lenz told the Austin Post Bulletin. "I asked her what she was doing, and that happened to be the song on the radio."

Lenz turned her patrol car's radio to the same station Seiver was listening to, and decided it was time to stretch her legs. She got out of her car and joined Seiver in the middle of an empty parking lot for a quick dance, and the moment was captured on her dash cam and uploaded to the police department's Facebook page.

"Millie says sometimes you just need to dance, Sgt. Lenz couldn't agree more," the video is captioned.

The video has been viewed more than 100,000 times and has received attention from national news outlets.

"This has been very overwhelming," Lenz told the Post Bulletin. "Well, this wasn't really a big deal at the time when I did it. Then, it had taken off. It was such a small gesture, but it meant so much to other people, I guess."
