The Demopolis Police Department wrapped up the first Children’s Police Academy with a graduation ceremony on June 14. Nineteen children between the ages of five and nine earned certificates after a four-day-long program in which they learned about anti-bullying, gun safety and more. Pictured, from left, is Sgt. Richard Bryant, Fire Chief Keith Murray and Sgt. Monica Oliver along with the graduates.
