Members of the public were invited to meet the new chief of the Excelsior Springs Police Department at two events in February. Free coffee and refreshments were provided while residents had the chance to speak with Chief Gregory Dull and other members of the Excelsior Springs Police Department. Event venues were Excelsior Roasting Company on the west side of town and Other Trails coffee house in downtown.
Gregory Dull, a 31 year veteran of the Kansas City Missouri Police Department, was officially sworn into office on Monday, January 3rd at the Hall of Waters. Dull, who is married with five children, is originally from Shawnee Mission, KS.
