Caleb Baca photographed Biden speaking to the man after he taking his granddaughter to the movies, and Washington businessman Paul Eqale shared the image on Facebook.

"Character is about what you do when no one is watching," Equale wrote on Facebook.

"I'm not exactly sure what he gave the homeless man, but he appeared to write something down on a piece of paper …, which he then proceeded to give the homeless man outside," Baca told WTTG.
