Chief Hodges discusses an incident at Mall of America, a nationwide warrant for a suspect, and an upcoming event, Cops and Joggers.
These two keep the hundreds (and somedays what probably feels like 1000's) of details organized each day. Our organization runs smoothly because of them. Thank you, Emily and Amanda, for all you do! 💙🫶
