HENNEPIN COUNTY SHERIFF UPDATE <br /> Sheriff David Hutchinson thanked the Chief of Police and his staff and said Orono's police department is <br /> one of the best in the County. The Chief is always very responsive with water rescues and they are lucky <br /> to have him; he makes the Sheriffs job easier. Sheriff Hutchinson said it has been a challenging year <br /> with the death of George Floyd,the civil unrest, and COVID. He has been busy and does not think he has <br /> had a day off in six months or more. A priority of his was to come to every City Council meeting for <br /> every city in the County and he did not accomplish that last year due to COVID;he hopes to get to all <br /> 36+cities. Most importantly in this region is the water patrol and Lieutenant Magnuson is here,was just <br /> promoted to Captain,and has led the water patrol for the past few years and will still be overseeing it.
