Wednesday's Child is a weekly NBC10 spot hosted by Vai Sikahema that features a Philadelphia region foster child in the hope of finding him or her a loving family in the Tri-state area.
The subject of last week's feature, Patrick, wants to be a police officer, so Vai arranged to get him a tour at one of the finest outfits in the area: the Lower Merion Police Department.
