P.A. youth rewarded for good behaviour
Prince Albert Police officers plan to hand out hundreds of tickets to the city’s youth over the next few months.
The initiative is part of the police service’s positive ticketing campaign, which is now in its sixth year. Youth aged five to 17 can receive tickets for being good leaders at their school, or simply wearing a helmet at the skate park.
Community Relations Division Sgt. Travis Willie said he enjoys having fun with the kids.
“I always tell the kids when I issue the ticket ‘Go home today and tell mom and dad you got a ticket from the police and see what they say’ and of course the kids love that,” he said.
