Today’s Good News
A man recently emailed to thank Chief Bryan T. Norwood and his officers for the "great job" they did while handling a recent protest. "Each officer working the protest should be commended for the outstanding job they performed. I was proud to say I am a Richmond resident and even prouder to say we have an outstanding police department," he wrote. "It was encouraging to see you were present also, outstanding to see a leader with his troops working in the field. In closing, tell all the men and women to keep up the good work. They have not gone unnoticed."
