Quinn, who is missing the left side of her heart and is scheduled for her third open-heart surgery in April, was unable to travel north for the family’s annual frolic in the snow because of her condition, the television station reported.

So, the police department brought the snow to Quinn.

"She's had a chance to throw some snowballs and her brothers -- do all that stuff here in Gilbert," Adam Walker, Quinn's father, told KNXV. Adam Walker is a firefighter for the Casa Grande Fire Department, the television station reported.

The Casa Grande Fire Department documented the event on its Facebook page.
