Eagan Police Chief Roger New meets with host Steve Francisco to talk about his department and the men and women who work every day to keep our community safe.
The Chief also offers his insights about the tragic deaths in Burnsville on February 18 of two police officers and a firefighter/paramedic and how the Eagan Police Department supported its neighbor city and its officers through this most difficult time.
Chief New is a strong proponent of community engagement and tells viewers about several programs, including its Youth Leadership Program, the Citizens Academy, and National Night Out that bring police officers together with the community that they serve.
Finally, Chief New touches on his department’s efforts to keep our schools safe through the SRO School Resource Officer program and the continuing fight against internet crimes targeting children and seniors.
