Bloomington got lucky with the Police chief. We need someone like him in Minneapolis.

Great job! My son, died, in 2019 at the age of 21 in Minneapolis in 2019 as the result of a fentanyl overdose. I do not believe it's what he intended on buying from what I understand but it is what he got and he died in May of 2019. And he's my youngest, and I miss him Beyond comprehension. Thank you for your good work and please remember no one is immune to these things. It can happen in the best neighborhoods to the worst neighborhoods and everything in between. Thanks again and God bless.

Every individual who shows disrespect for the law must pay the full penalty!

The slap the perpetrators fingers DA's and Judges need to be replaced ... ASAP.

Vote for candidates who respect the law and who will enforce it!

This officer is wonderful at answering questions. "Yes", "no" and then providing followup information. Would that Jean-Pierre would watch this, if only for how to get it done
