Police Chief Travis Ruby introduced Detective Cassandra Howell, summarizing her long career in Ada County and service with school-resource duties, and said Howell will serve Eagle Elementary Schools full time starting in January.

He emphasized holiday-safety basics for residents: lock vehicles and keep gifts out of sight, consider a rideshare plan and have a neighbor watch homes when traveling.
"Please lock up your stuff," Ruby said as he urged residents to be cautious with social-media travel posts and shared practical steps to reduce theft and risk during the holidays. Council welcomed Detective Howell and thanked the police department for its response work over the past week.
