tonight I was pulled over for not having my headlights on. I have a work van and they are usually…read moreautomatic but this time apparently they weren't. The officer was courteous but very intuitive. He gave me a field sobriety test and ultimately I passed. when it was all said and done, I do appreciate his professionalism from the start. Even though I was not intoxicate, he gave me the opportunity to prove that fact. When completed he let me go on my way. I know the police constantly get negative publicity but at the eod, they are doing their job. I do wholeheartedly appreciate the fact that I was given the opportunity to show I wasn't intoxicated by this office. I don't know his name but I want him to know that his professionalism did not go unnoticed. Thank you For all you do.

I have to say I have never been a huge fan of cops. Maybe it's just resentment from my dad being…read morelaw enforcement but that's another story. Since moving to Shreveport/Bossier in October I have heard horror stories about how "bad" the cops are in Bossier City and how they will bring you in for jaywalking etc. but I will say this today has been the worst day I've had in a long time and it was the kindness of two Bossier City cops that have made me smile. This morning my girlfriend and I were cut off and forced into the guardrail on the 220 exit ramp. She was historical because it's her brand new dream truck and trying to figure out what to do and what not. The Corporal who responded and I wish I remembered his name could not have been more helpful and supportive offering options and solutions, continually asking if she was ok because her shoulder was injured I mean this was by far the best experience I have ever had with a police officer and it was probably the most stressful situation I've had in a long time. Flash forward a couple hours and I'm sitting at gateway on airline and Officer Gray walks in and talks to the front desk apparently an elderly gentleman had a fender bender and busted a tire and officer Gay escorted him into the gateway parking lot and Convinced the staff to change the tire for this gentleman only because he is not allowed to do it or he would have himself. I am so happy today to call Bossier City my home and proud of my police department and it's people.

Takes them forever to respond to emergency calls. I had my house broken into and my dogs hurt and…read morethey did practically nothing. Plus that was not the first time I had to call them to that house because someone tried to break in the day we moved in. I gave them a picture , license plate number and description of people who stole a stove from my fathers house and nothing was done because they knew the offender. God forbid you're in any type of emergency because if you call 911 to try and get ahold of them you're gonna have to jump through some hoops to get their dispatcher. You're basically dead if you don't know their number. They were called to my fathers house multiple times for break ins (my father is deceased but we live right beside his house) and they told us it was our fault for not having a no trespassing sign and did nothing about it. But god forbid you speed cause they'll have like 3 officers and a sheriff there. One of their deputies wrote the wrong date on a ticket causing a family member to miss it which resulted in a warrant. They're just a terrible department that needs a new chief because obviously Ryan doesn't know what he's doing right now. Plus on top of everything they are completely rude to you and act as if they're inferior to everyone else. There's only a handful of good officers in this department.
