JOINT STATEMENT ISSUED BY FIVE CITIES REGARDING POLICE MUTUAL AID PROVIDED TO SALT LAKE CITY
|
Five Salt Lake County cities (Cottonwood Heights, Herriman, Riverton, South Jordan and West Jordan) released a joint statement on mutual police aid their cities provided to Salt Lake City during the violent protests over the weekend:
“As communities, we are so proud of our brothers and sisters in blue who heeded the call to render mutual aid in Salt Lake City when aid was needed. In the midst of a very challenging situation, our law enforcement officers stepped in to provide support to the Salt Lake City Police. Even as officers were assaulted and injured, including some of our own, they showed restraint and professionalism in the face of violent rioters. We call on all our citizens to engage in civility and show respect toward each other as our country faces trials of division and justice.”
