Police Week is a time to provide extra encouragement aimed toward our law enforcement officers.
This is Police Week in America.
Michigan has approximately 17,000 sworn Law Enforcement Officers supporting our communities.
Over the next few days we are encouraged to show support and honor the men and women who put their lives on the line to keep our communities safe.
The week- long recognition also coincides with National Peace Officers Memorial Day, which is May 15. Nine fallen police officers from Michigan will be honored at a memorial in Washington D.C. on Wednesday.
