The Mounds View Police Department launched several new programs in the <br />second quarter of 2017. The Department is rolling out our Body Worn Camera <br />program, has received overdose training and placed Narcan kits in all of our patrol <br />vehicles, and also placed "Mega Mover" drag bags in the squads to help reduce <br />injuries to officers and patients during lift assists. The Mounds View Police <br />Department answered 3416 calls for service from April through June, with our <br />leading crime continuing to be theft. <br />Bike with Police and Fire Event <br />On 7/13/17, the Mounds View Police was invited to bring in the rockwall to the <br />Ramsey County Library. We called our friends at the SBM Fire Department who <br />had helmets reserved for our residents and invited them to bring them to hand out. <br />An estimated 30 kids received new helmets or had their own helmets properly <br />fitted. The rockwall was a huge hit! Squad cars and fire trucks were climbed <br />through and thoroughly checked out. Police Chief Harder and Fire Chief Smith <br />read stories on bike safety and practiced their stop drop and roll! Our message for <br />kids is to always wear their helmets. Our officer's drive around looking to hand out <br />the best kind of ticket out there ... a free Dairy Queen ice cream cone ... to any kid <br />caught wearing their helmet.
