In a Facebook post, the Pickens Police Department shared body camera video from a traffic stop Sunday. A man from North Carolina played the spoons, a saw, and a guitar after he was pulled over by officers while in South Carolina.

Police said that officers often hang around after traffic stops or other incidents to interact with the public, according to WHNS. Being serenaded was a first for the officers.

Officers were asked by the man if they wanted to hear him play some of his instruments, according to the news outlet. According to the police department said, officers could not turn down the chance.

“Not all end in citations or arrest, and sometimes we hang around a little longer just to interact with the public, listen, and sometimes offer assistance,” police said.

“Thank you Sir for giving us our first Traffic Stop Concert,” police said.

Police said no citations were issued in the traffic stop.
