New Arlington police chief meets with community
By FOX 4 Staff
ARLINGTON, Texas - Arlington’s new police chief met with members of the community Monday.
Chief Al Jones started with the city two weeks ago after 25 years with the Baltimore County Police Department.
The city hosted an event to welcome Chief Jones and to give residents the opportunity to talk to him.
He said he’s excited about getting to know those he’ll be serving. I think what I’m most looking forward to most is probably the interactions with people. Like I said, I am a servant leader, a relational policing guy. I want to be able to get into the community and interact with the community, he said.
COLUMBIA â Columbia Police Department leaders are reminding officers to document traffic stops and the department held a bias policing training since a September traffic stop, according to documents obtained by Target 8.
A traffic stop from Sept. 2 is still under review after the Columbia Citizenâs Police Review Board voted for Columbia Police Chief Geoff Jones to revisit the internal investigation.
On Dec. 3, KOMU 8 requested documents regarding training efforts and any records filled out due to or because of the incident.
KOMU 8 aired some records from the internal investigation last week. After waiting for the person in charge of researching training records to return from out of town, KOMU 8 received the training documents.
