Our officers had a blast at the Community Car Show this past weekend and even got the chance to meet the one and only Magic Johnson! It was a great day filled with good people, good weather, and some fast cars (just don’t test them out on our roads)

This Sunday our officers had the pleasure of participating in the “Cops and Community” basketball event. This was a great opportunity to promote physical fitness and to connect with our community. Thank you to those who came out. Hopefully, we’ll see you all next year!

Our police athletic league (PAL) had the opportunity to meet with the TCBA Youth Cycling Club. The officers gave a presentation on bike safety and the rules of the road. Afterward, the officers biked over 5 miles with the group on the Lansing River Trail! Thank you, guys, for having us, we’re already excited to come back next year!

Congratulations to Lieutenant Sean Mills and Lieutenant Shawn McNamara for graduating from the Michigan State University School of Staff and Command! They successfully completed a 400-hour problem-based course, developing their leadership and executive-level skills. Your dedication and hard work are truly inspiring!

Yesterday, our training unit hosted two different trainings for our officers; CSI technician school and tactical bicycle operations. Officers at the CSI tech school got advanced training on how to process and document crime scenes. This is a great resource for our road patrol, allowing specially trained officers to process lower-level crime scenes without having to call in a fully trained crime scene investigator. Officers assigned to tactical bicycle operations received hands-on training from the Michigan State Police on how to handle large, and unruly crowds. This skill set is paramount in having safe and efficient resolutions to unruly crowds and riots. Schools and training like these are regularly offered to our officers, allowing them to build on skills they’re passionate about.
