"A Butler County sheriff's deputy stepped up on Monday to replace a bike stolen from a boy who lost his father this year.Michael Smiley, 10, said he's happy with his new bike at his New Miami home after his original was stolen three weeks ago.\"I was on my way to the New Miami High School game. I walked, and when I came back here, it was gone,\" Smiley said.Diana Smiley reported her son's bike stolen.\"It was on the porch, and they just came right up on the porch and took it,\" she said.Butler County Sheriff's Deputy Matt Maxwell took the theft report and searched, but he couldn't find the bike. He said he was moved after learning of some other personal tragedies in the boy's life.\"Michael said, 'If my dad had been here, they wouldn't have taken my bike,'\" Diana Smiley said. \"I think it touched Deputy Maxwell. He said, 'Dad?' and Michael said, 'My dad died, and now people treat me bad.'\"So, the deputy called a contact with the Hamilton West Walmart and donated a new bike.Diana Smiley choked up thinking about the act of kindness.\"I really, really appreciate him, and I thank him,\" she said.Maxwell personally delivered the new bike Saturday morning.\u00A0"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
