Meet California's "Toy Man," a humble humanitarian who's brought joy to thousands of kids
CBSN
Jeffrey Olsen, affectionately known as the "Toy Man" in Vista, California, has spent over three decades enriching the lives of those less fortunate by donating toys, food, and clothes.
"I just do it because it feels right," Olsen said as he shared, pictures of children, many of whom he has only briefly met.
In total, Olsen has helped 59,960 children with new toys. Among them was Mathew Garcia, a child he met in a hospital suffering from severe muscular dystrophy.
When Los Angeles Police Department officers in riot gear arrived at the University of California, Los Angeles early Thursday, the anonymous messaging app Sidechat filled with posts trying to piece together what was happening: "Is everyone ok? I just heard like 8 cop cars go by," one post read. Others shared rumors about police action and outside agitators and pointed students to live streams to watch the events unfold.
