Dalton Police Hire New Public Relations Specialist

The Dalton Police Department has named Bruce Frazier as the new Public Relations Specialist, pending approval by the city's Public Safety Commission.

Department Chief Jason Parker says, "the addition of Mr. Frazier is a continuation of our strategy to keep residents informed of the department's current and future operations.  He is very well qualified, and an excellent fit for public safety."

Frazier graduated in 2002 from the University of Georgia's Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication with a degree in Broadcast News.  He's served as a sports anchor and reporter at three television stations in Georgia, including WDNN-TV in Dalton from May of 2002 until March of 2004.  He also covered sports at WNEG-TV in Toccoa and WRBL-TV in Columbus.  He says that he's excited to be back in northwest Georgia and is looking forward to meeting and working with local media and the public.

Frazier started his duties with the Police Department on Monday, and will be submitted to the Public Safety Commission for approval at their next meeting on July 22nd.

Frazier's duties will include maintaining the Dalton Police Department's Blog.  He wants to encourage more interaction with the community on the blog, so feel free to post comments on articles or suggest any ideas for topics you'd like to see covered on this website.
