If you live in Maplewood, on Wednesday mornings don’t be surprised to see a police officer walking down your street. Maplewood Acting Chief of Police Matt Neighbor told block leaders in an email it’s for the officers’ “health and wellness,” and to give residents a chance to get to say hi.
The walks began on Wednesday, July 20. The officers will be walking through neighborhoods beginning at 8 a.m.
Neighbor’s letter is below:
Great exercise! If we put our trash out in the morning, great chance to meet an officer friend!! -south of Manchester anyway. .. Might be a good time for other folks to walk too?
