MOUND CITY – Linn County Sheriff Kevin Friend met with the Linn County Commissioners on Monday, April 17, and updated them on events at the justice center and gave the service numbers for the past week.
Friend said that Kansas County Association, Multiline Pool (KCAMP), Linn County’s risk management provider, put on the training and served lunch for five agencies at the sheriff’s office the past week.
He told the commissioners that the classes provided by KCAMP were on policy, training, supervision, legal updates, use of force, jail operations, vehicle pursuits, harassment and discrimination. Various instructors taught the courses.
During his report, Friend told the commissioners that calls for service were up about 100 more than the week before. He said that even though there was a fire ban the past weekend, he attribute the rise in calls to burning because there were multiple fires the past week.
