North Tonawanda Police officers are ticketing kids for doing good deeds.

Officers will "ticket" kids they see doing good deeds or showing positive behavior. The ticket is a coupon for a free 12 ounce Slurpee at any participating 7-Eleven store.

The goal of the Operation Chill program is to reduce crime and better relationships between police and youth.

Operation Chill includes more than 900 local law enforcement agencies across the United States and in Canada. More than 15 million coupons have been given to officers in cities and towns where 7-Eleven does business to give to deserving kids.
