Taking a bite out of crime

Santa Monica Police Explorers escort McGruff, the crime-fighting dog, on Saturday, August 19, 2006 during a community picnic at Virginia Avenue Park. Police Explorers must be between 14 and 19 years of age, be of good moral character, and have no serious arrest record.  Police Explorers must meet the same basic physical requirements as a Police Officer.  Police Explorers assist sworn police officers by performing non-hazardous duties such as assisting in crime reduction campaigns, evidence searches, disaster assistance, community relations activities, and civic events. Police Explorers are volunteers, but are completely insured while in training and on duty.
