Boswell marshal reports 72 calls since last meeting, urges public to report suspicious activity
Summary
Marshal Michael Marquess reported 72 calls since the previous meeting, summarized a "Coffee with a Cop" event with 29 attendees, and urged residents to report suspicious activity because investigations depend on reports from the public.
Marshal Michael Marquess delivered the police department's report during the Oct. 8 Boswell meeting, saying the department has handled 72 calls for service since the last council session.
Marquess thanked Farmer's & Merchants for sponsoring "Coffee with a Cop," which drew 29 attendees, and said department standard operating procedures are under their biannual review. He emphasized that the department relies on residents to report incidents: "I am happy to investigate, but I cannot do my job if it is not reported," Marquess said, and he noted that many reports arrive "after the fact or through the grapevine."
