Gastonia Police talk traffic stops with Black leaders
As Hunter Huss head football coach Randy Thompson listened to Gastonia Police officers talk about their view of executing traffic stops his mind wandered a bit to the players he mentors on the field. For a lot of my kids, they have only had negative experiences from the police and we know that they re not all bad but that is the perception, Thompson said.
Thompson heard from the officers at a community event Saturday held at Tabernacle Baptist Church involving community leaders and police officers. He said he appreciated officers being willing to share their experiences and what goes through their minds during traffic stops.
Hispanic Gastonia Police officers are reaching out to the Spanish-speaking community.
The officers plan to hold a community event from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, April 17, at the Rotary Pavilion, 111 N. South St. We are always working to build trust and create positive relationships in our community with the people we serve, said Capt. Nancy Brogdon, the highest-ranking woman on the force of Hispanic descent. If someone is a victim of crime, we want that reported to police. Also, we want to share knowledge about community resources.
Police operate differently within different countries and Brogdon wants the Spanish-speaking community to understand that Gastonia officers are here to serve them.
