'Future Trooper' Photo Goes Viral

The photo was taken at the Bedford Farms in Concord.

Two Massachusetts State troopers spotted “Officer Sebastian” riding his bicycle Sunday with a badge attached to the front at the Bedford Farms in Concord.

The troopers, Matt Routhier of the Concord Barracks and Avery Morin of the 81st Recruit Training Troop, asked Sebastian if he needed any assistance.

They then gave him a trooper hat to wear for a photo, and Sebastian quickly snapped a salute.
