Alice Echo News Journal During the Alice Rotary meeting last week, Police Chief Eden Garcia gave a presentation on the progress he and the Alice Police Department have made since he took office. Garcia was sworn in as police chief three months ago, but has been in law enforcement since 1992. He began his career with the Jim Wells County Sheriff's Office. His law enforcement dream was to one day be the Chief of Police for the City of Alice. "I had set out a one year plane and we have accomplished about 50 percent of that plan," Garcia said. During his presentation, Garcia gave updates on programs the department has been implementing.
