Today’s Good News
The Richmond Police Department would like to thank the community for their support, patience and understanding during Hurricane Irene. At a time when our communications and patrol officers were busy and away from their own families, several citizens brought officers water, Gatorade and offered thanks for their hard work. Thank you, Richmond!
