Van Oort; Councilmen Craig Block, Gary Lorenz, Tom Strait, Gary Welch, Dave Kissinger; and all the residents and business community in the City of Ankeny, we are once again proud to present the Ankeny Police Department Annual Report. As this letter is written in December 2008, the police headquarters located at 411 SW Ordnance Road remains under construction and several members of the police department have joined me in regularly scheduled tours, meetings, and consulta- Department 2008 Annual Report Ankeny Police tions with our contractor. With the building enclosed, the interior work is well under way, and coordination between vendors and installation schedules presents our biggest challenge. This Annual Report provides a snapshot of crime in the City of Ankeny during 2008, but that snapshot would be incomplete without a reference to several benchmarks this past year. We have dedicated several pages in this 2008 Annual Report to the most significant events that occurred in our City and State. Most noteworthy were the floods of 2008 and the impact of those floods on the State and local economy. The floods contributed to a rise in corn prices, and that increase contributed to gasoline averages of $4.50 per gallon during part of the year. In May, an EF5 tornado struck the City of Parkersburg, killing several people and injuring scores of others. The Ankeny Fire Department responded to a call for assistance in Parkersburg, and we have memorialized that response in our event section of this report as well. In late July, sheer winds of 80 mph struck the north end of the community, tearing roofs off houses and damaging hundreds of trees. “It is clear that 2008 present- Two-inch diameter hail accompanied the storm and dam- aged multiple cars and houses in the same area.

Our con- tinued high levels of training and standards make us appealing for job applicants, and we often serve as a source for other police departments interested in duplicating our standards or policies. It is my great honor to present the 2008 Ankeny Police Department Annual Report. Sincerely, Gary J.

  • In the Court of Appeals of Iowa
    IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA No. 1-718 / 11-0379 Filed November 9, 2011 RODNEY HICOK, Petitioner-Appellant, vs. IOWA EMPLOYMENT APPEAL BOARD and IOWA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, Respondent-Appellees. ________________________________________________________________ Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Robert B. Hanson, Judge. Rodney Hicok appeals from the judicial review order affirming the Employment Appeal Board‟s determination that the commissioner fired him for good cause. AFFIRMED. Pamela J. Walker of Sherinian & Walker Law Firm, West Des Moines, for appellant. Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, Jeffrey C. Peterzalek, Assistant Attorney General, and Rick Autry, Iowa Employment Appeal Board, for appellees. Heard by Danilson, P.J., and Tabor and Mullins, JJ. 2 TABOR, J. A veteran member of the Iowa State Patrol lost his job after circulating inappropriate jokes in violation of Department of Public Safety rules. Rodney Hicok now challenges the judicial review order affirming the Employment Appeal Board‟s determination that the commissioner fired him for good cause. Hicok contends the commissioner imposed the harsh consequence after receiving pressure from state legislators who read about Hicok‟s initial transgression in the newspaper. Because we agree with the district court that Hicok has not shown the Board‟s action violated any provision of law or that the Board failed to consider any relevant and important matters, we affirm. I. Background Facts and Proceedings Hicok started his career with the Department of Public Safety (DPS) as a capitol police officer in 1981. He became a state trooper in 1985. Hicok received his promotion to sergeant in 2000.

    IN THE SUPREME COURT OF IOWA No. 16–1720 Filed June 22, 2018 Amended September 6, 2018 STATE OF IOWA, Appellee, vs. TERRY LEE COFFMAN, Appellant. Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Story County, James B. Malloy, Judge. The defendant seeks further review of a court of appeals decision affirming his conviction for operating while intoxicated, contending that the district court erred in denying his motion to suppress. DECISION OF COURT OF APPEALS AND JUDGMENT OF DISTRICT COURT AFFIRMED. Matthew T. Lindholm of Gourley, Rehkemper, & Lindholm, P.L.C., West Des Moines, for appellant. Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, Kevin Cmelik and Zachary Miller, Assistant Attorneys General, Jessica Reynolds, County Attorney, and Shean Fletchall, Assistant County Attorney, for appellee. 2 MANSFIELD, Justice. This case requires us to decide whether an officer was justified in pulling behind a vehicle and activating his emergency lights when the vehicle was stopped by the side of a highway after 1:00 a.m. with its brake lights engaged. We conclude the officer’s actions were justified under the “community caretaking function” exception to the warrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment and article I, section 8 of the Iowa Constitution. For this reason, we affirm the conviction for operating while intoxicated that resulted from this roadside encounter. I. Background Facts and Proceedings. In the early hours of May 22, 2016, Story County Sheriff’s Deputy Nicholas Hochberger was on assigned patrol in the southern part of the county. When he was outside Slater at approximately 1:08 a.m., he spotted a vehicle pulled over on the side of the highway with its brake lights on.

    PUBLIC SAFETY The Impact of Terrorism on State Law Enforcement By Chad Foster and Gary Cordner Traditionally, state-level law enforcement has represented about 10 percent of total police employment in the United States. In keeping with this employment level, state law enforcement has traditionally played an important, but relatively small role in the overall picture of policing America. The information collected for this project, however, indicates an expanding role for state law enforcement since 2001, partly due to new roles and responsibilities associated with homeland security, and partly because state police are filling gaps and vacuums created by shifts in federal law enforcement priorities. Thus, while it is true that all types of police agencies have been significantly affected post Sept. 11, it seems that state law enforcement agencies have been affected the most. In recent years, Arizona established the Arizona tablished in 1835.2 Most state agencies, however, are Counter Terrorism Information Center, a combined relatively new.
