Over the summer, I was pulled over in the morning taking my kids to the flea market. The officer notified me that my new tag was expired after only a month of having it. Before long we had 3 Durham police officers trying to correct the mistake for us.

When I was 19 my car stalled at an intersection. The officer that showed up pushed the car while I steered.

These are truly servents of the public in this town.

I was unable to reach The Terrace at Grove Park for two days after the storm and they were not responding to my request 2 days ago to confirm my mom's safety after Hurricane Michael. The Dothan Police responded quickly to my request and my mom called me from the maintenance man's cell. Thank you so much Dothan Police Force.

I was so touched to read about the generosity and humanity of officer Katrina towards Sheena Davenport, she is a credit to the Police of Dothan. I think its important to give credit where its due. Good on you girl. Im from UK, so it shows the world is watching you.A big hug to you Katrina from me. Wishing you all the best in life . Derek Bond xxxx

I want to thank se officers that I don't even know thier name. I had someone call the police on me over something that was not true and I wanted to post my appreciation of how professional they handled things. Of course they were ready thinking I was violent and I wasn't so I don't blame them for that but they listened and used good judgement. Thanks for all yall do and God bless

Great guys, I came into work one day at 630 with the PD in the parking lot doing a safety check.

Thank you for serving and protecting Dothan, AL

I was shocked at how angry Officer Fisher got at a man applying his first amendment right to freedom of the press. Freedom of the press applies to every citizen and is one of the few ways we hold those with more power than us accountable.

It appeared to me Fisher wasn't really upset because he thought the man with the camera was taking pictures of a hospital as much as Fisher knew his time doing whatever he wants as a cop without the world knowing is coming to an end. Watch the video and you will see he angrily mentions a previous instance of him being caught on video. Apparently he really hate's others having video evidence of what he does on the job. Weird.

You were born in the wrong time and place Officer. You are better suited for 1940s Germany I would think.You would've loved it...

I am a 40 plus year resident and 60 years old. I was pulled over by officer McCree a few days prior to the latest incident, but McCree stalked and followed me to the Beeline on Newton and from there to the food depot parking lot where he gave me a warning for 'not signaling 100 feet before a turn'. The officer was more than halfway down the block behind me and behind another car?!? He has superhuman laser measuring vision. Anyway while following/ stalking me, the office not once used turn signals, but gives me a warning for something he guessed at?!? Just two days ago, I was stopped for stopping on the white line at Burdeshaw and Blackshear at the library by Officer Chavis and with Officer McCree. Upon Chavis giving his warning and told I could leave, I asked Officer McCree how he was able to guage that distance being so far away. No answer from him, but Officer Chavis very angry said that if I kept asking questions, I would be charged with harassment and arrested. I left, call dispatch, and immediately got a callback from the supervising sergeant. Very nice he was, and he said he would check the cars cameras. This officer Chavis is the police department accident waiting to happen with his 'big city' attitude, and will probably end up costing self insured Dothan some money.

I sincerely hope the jackboot thug officer K. Fisher has been terminated. His ignorance of law, constitutional rights, and propensity to abuse his ‘authority’ speaks poorly to the character, training, intellect, and competence of the entire department.

Rude police officers who hate that they have to take time to investigate an auto accident that you did not cause. I guess it took one away from his donuts? Then the officer did not even listen to what I had to say. I was driving a new car and he decided it had no damage, LOL when it was clearly damaged and one person was already on the way to the hospital with an injury. Stay tuned folks this is going to get really good because of the pictures of the accident, etc. This officer is so red faced his blood pressure must be about to make him stroke out plus his weight! Really, if you don't like investigating accidents, don't be an officer. If you can't look at video evidence and pictures of the accident, you are not doing your job. Really this guy was such a jerk. Glad I do not live in Dothan, AL.

The safety of my kids was not important enough for an officer to respond to ignorant disrespectful kids racing through Sonic parking lot. I have a disability child that's has low vision and these entitled, rude, kids mocked my request to slow down.And be careful of others. And the disregard of the "authorities" of Dothan Alabama Is why so many kids are the most disrespectful generation ever. There are no consequences for their actions. They will keep being disrespectful and entitled degenerates until someone gets hurt. Vehicles are NOT TOYS!! Dothan PD needs to do what they get paid to do "PROTECT AND SERVE" not choose which situation is worth their attention!!! Do something before it's too late!!
