LUBBOCK, Texas — A video of a local assistant grocery store manager helping a man to his car has gotten viral attention.

The video, shared by Laci Gonzales, has gotten more than 90,000 views. It shows assistant manager Gary Jackson helping customer Bob Strong to his vehicle using a pallet jack.


Strong said he was getting a cup of coffee and talking with friends that day.
