Nothing fires up the holiday spirit like a good old-fashioned community event. Instead of concerts or dances, the people of North Little Rock gave kids the chance to go holiday shopping with the community's beloved police force.

On December 9th this year the city hosted an event called "Shop With a Cop," which was attended by ten-year-old Annie Zimmerman, among many others. No one could have seen this little girl coming. It happened in a Walmart.

Before anyone could even open their early Christmas presents, this girl snatched the microphone right out of an officers hands and starts belting out a tribute to the ideals of individual liberty and birth-given rights.

That is, she sang the national anthem. And let's just say the audience was shaken.

Officer Matthew Peach, in an interview with KTHV, said that "Shop With a Cop" was mainly created for the children. Regardless, it is always just as much of a treat for the police officers, and this year was certainly no exception. It has been an annual tradition for 13 years now.

Another officer, Sergeant Amy Cooper, said they really wanted to give a great Christmas experience to the kids of North Little Rock. But this isn't all that they got.

The moment that Annie sang those first words, everyone knew what was going on and put their hand over their heart. For the first minute or so, they only stood in quiet awe of her talent.

Thankfully for us, Tommy Norman, a police officer, caught the whole thing on video. Annie sounded at least twice her age as her voice reverberated through the aisles of the department store.

She projected her voice so powerfully with such well-controlled vibrato that it wouldn't be surprising to find that Annie has a future in opera or other kinds of theater.

Some people in the audience could hardly keep their mouth shut as she soared into the high notes at the end of the song. People were whistling and cheering and clapping before she even finished singing.

Annie got some well-deserved recognition for her performance. The video went viral and she was eventually invited to be interviewed on national television. Wow! There aren't many of us who can say we climbed our way into the spotlight by the age of ten.

Check out the magnificent performance for yourself and make sure to show this video to your friends. This is a young talent nobody would want to miss!
