From homeowners to business owners, Oakland Police Chief Floyd Mitchell says this is a powerful way to build effective relationships with the community.
Saturday, June 15, 2024 11:48PMOAKLAND, Calif. --"I like my coffee black with two Sweet'N Lows in it," said Chief Floyd Mitchell, with big laugh.
"We cannot be at every place all the time. So we rely on these relationships, so when we have incidents, that relationship is already built," explains Chief Mitchell. The way Granberry explains, the two Oakalnds don't get along. And don't communicate. That mistrust, he says, gets exploited. He says law enforcement needs to understand how to navigate through that.
Gichki says he understand the frustration around complaints of delayed response time. He says this was a chance to explain to residents why under-reporting is a big problem as well.Oakland resident Ranji Mandal got to meet the beat officers for her neighborhood. She says she feels reassured after their talk.
