One little girl was looking for a purple dress for her mother.

A teenager looked at curtains for his little sister.

A little boy was looking for anything with Tinkerbell.

For the past eight years, the aisles of Walmart in Westminster have hosted more than 175 youngsters in their quest to find holiday presents for members of their families. On Dec. 10, their search is aided by members of Westminster's police department, as each child was accompanied by an officer during the annual Shop with A Cop event.

"Chief (Jeff) Spaulding feels very strongly that each child be with an officer," said Debbie Sabosk, an organizer of the event for the store. "He feels it's important for that bond between officer and child."
