Communications Model Between Police, Minority Community Called ‘Success’ By U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan

July 22, 2016 Crime

Paul Ryan
U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan, Speaker of the House of Representatives, singled out a communications system between the township’s police and African-American community as one that should be replicated in the country.

A Franklin Township success story received a nod earlier this month  from an unlikely source: the speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.

In an interview by NPR’s Steve Instep, U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., said that the communications model used by township police and Franklin’s African-American community is successful and should be replicated in other parts of the country.
