Read Your Heart Out

February 17, 2014 3:52 PM

A couple of weeks ago MPD Officer Caleb Johnson participated in the 2014 "Read Your Heart Out" event, reading to students at Falk elementary school.

This is another great example of the work MPD officers do every day to build trust and establish relationships in the community. Great work Caleb!
