Police Captain Balks At Attending Law Enforcement Appreciation Day At Mosque

By Howard M. Friedman

ADVERTISEMENTS
KRMG News yesterday reported that the Tulsa (OK) police department has reassigned a police captain and begun an internal investigation after the captain refused to instruct his officers to attend an upcoming Law Enforcement Appreciation Day sponsored by a local mosque.  The event will feature food, meeting of local Muslim leadership and an opportunity to watch the afternoon prayer service.  Officers object to being required to attend a religious event. KRMG separately reports that Police Chief Chuck Jordan will attend the event.  Jordan says that community policing is part of the department's mission. He emphasized that members of the mosque deserve equal treatment and respect by the police.
