Congratulations to the 2014 graduating class of the Decatur Citizen’s Police Academy. Participants attended Thursday night classes for ten weeks covering various topics including criminal law, traffic enforcement, juvenile procedures, drug trends, use of force, criminal investigations, firearms safety & familiarization, crime in Decatur and community policing & crime prevention. Participants also had an opportunity to tour the DeKalb County Medical Examiner’s Officer and ride along with a patrol officer for a shift to see policing from the inside. We want to thank all of the participants for spending time getting to know us and learning about our profession.
If you are interested in attending the Citizen’s Police Academy in the future, please contact Sgt. Jennifer S. Ross at Jennifer.ross@decaturga.com or 678/553-6613.
