Forest Grove Police Log excerpt, 6 February 2019

This week's selection from the log of local police activity is a tale of community police work done right. Maybe.

January 25

•  A man called police to announce that he was going to start seeking a job per the advice of a patrol officer who had spoken with him during the day about turning his life around.

Supposing this man is sincere, and carries out his stated objective, I am warmed by this. Let us hope he means it.
