The Carencro Police Department hit the streets in their community Monday night as they took part in the Law Enforcement Walk Across Acadiana. 

Officers walked through neighborhoods hand-in-hand with citizens Monday night and even walked up to people's homes to introduce themselves. This was all part of police officers taking to the streets of Acadiana to improve relations with those that they serve.

This isn't the first time we have seen officers walk the streets in Acadiana. A few weeks ago the Lafayette Police Department did the same thing in troubled neighborhoods. 

Personally, I think its GREAT that police officers are showing citizens that they care and that they too are just like you and me.

If this is what it takes to improve relations between citizens and police they should keep walking and talking.

Job well done!
