This week marks the 14th annual Citizens on Patrol week.
Organized by the province and MPI, the week recognizes more than 1,700 Manitobans who volunteer their time each year to keep their communities safe.
Attorney General Gord Mackintosh says the grassroots program continues to be instrumental in preventing crime and assisting local police agencies.
Here in Thompson, the COPP program could use more help.
Residents interested in volunteering can call RCMP liaison Sandra Deibert at 677-6909.
