Residents of the Booker T. Washington Nursing Center in Shreveport got a big surprise on Christmas Eve.
Shreveport native Chris Dooley, better known as rapper Hurricane Chris, stopped by to spread some Christmas cheer with holiday gift baskets.
He'd already surprised them Monday morning with a big-screen television that was delivered to the nursing home from him.
Chris explained that because he's now in a position to give, this was his way of saying thank you. "I got to give back to the community," said Chris, who grew up in the Cedar Grove neighborhood where the nursing home is located.
Children of family members visiting residents in the home crowded around the 18-year-old for autographs and pictures. Residents and staff erupted into applause as he made his way through the hallways.
