    • The fun side of the RPD
  • From RPD Chief Kearse: "I have been debating whether or not to post this video; it is my opening of the 2012 Rolla Police Department awards banquet. In attendance are Judges, Mayor, City administrator, City council, Prosecuting attorneys, Sheriff?s dept, MSHP, Ro lla daily news and RPD employees and family members. The banquet is to recognize those employees that went above and beyond, to build comrade and to let those that we work in the system and those that are overseers of the department have an insight into the department, the fun and serious side. This opening is my attempt as serious humor so if you don?t have a sense of humor please don?t watch it. Thanks, Chief Kearse."
