the term community policing gets thrown
around a lot these days and most people
talking about it don't actually know
what it is
people believe that community policing
means social media Tick Tock dances
officers making fools of themselves
for clicks and views that's not what
community policing is
the video that you're going to see today
is a perfect example of community
policing
officers were dispatched on a call which
was actually a dispute between a man and
his son
the man did not want his son around
because the sun has a history of drug
abuse mixed with mental illness it was
too much for the dad to handle
the officers arrived on scene and began
mediating between the two
at the end of the day it was a pleasant
interaction for all and they all left
with a positive image of what was going
on this is
community policing
how you doing today brother
