Area police agencies to patrol Cd'A

A multi-agency cooperative detail will be providing law enforcement services Saturday to the citizens of Coeur d’Alene.

To allow officers and staff of the Coeur d’Alene Police Department to attend the funeral services for Sgt. Greg Moore, who was killed Tuesday in the line of duty, law enforcement personnel from several local agencies will be handling calls for service and patrolling the city streets of Coeur d’Alene for a 24-hour period beginning at 6 a.m.

“These dedicated law enforcement personnel hope continue the professionalism and honor that the Coeur d’Alene Police Department is known for,” stated a media release from the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office.

Agencies include the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office, Post Falls Police Department, Rathdrum Police Department and the Idaho State Police. Deputies, officers and troopers will be working in a cooperative effort to ensure the Coeur d’Alene Police officers have time to grieve the loss of Sgt. Moore as well as provide needed respite to them during this difficult time.

Since Sgt. Moore’s death, the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office has been assisting the Coeur d’Alene Police Department with their calls for service, but in an effort to provide an additional level of service to the community other agencies willingly came together to further support the department.
