LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. -- Atlanta-based actor, writer and director Tyler Perry wrote a $5,000 check this week to a Lawrenceville soccer team that lost money from a fundraiser when the team's coach's truck was broken into following the event.
"Out of nowhere I got a call from Tyler Perry's publicist company," coach Michael Samnik told the Gwinnett Daily Post. "They told me that Tyler Perry had seen the news and that he was very moved by what happened."

Samnik, who coaches the Phoenix Red U-16 team, told officers all the money the team raised at a fundraiser was taken. The incident report stated that more than $2,400 in cash was stolen.
