Lockport Police Chief Larry Eggert talks with Alderman-at-Large Joe Kibler during Law Enforcement Night at the Monday Night Cruise.

Lockport Police were present and accounted for at tonight's Law Enforcement Night at the Monday Night Cruise at Ida Fritz Park.

Police Chief Larry Eggert was in attendance, taking time out to talk to cruise-goers who stopped at the eastern end of the park to say "hi."

Also in attendance from LPD were Captain Anthony Palumbo, Officer Dennis Sobieraski and Community Policing Aid Mark Sanders. About 10 members of the Niagara County Auxiliary Police were also on hand — although they're there every week helping to keep the peace.

LPD equipment ranged from an official department mountain bike to a motorcycle, Corvette and K-9 SUV unit. The department also had weapons on display and readily answered questions from community members, who were eager to ask questions of the officers present.

Next week is 50s night at the car cruise, running from 6-9 p.m. as it does every week during the summer.

For the full cruise schedule, check the Monday Night Car Cruise web site.

With sunny skies and temperatures hovering around 80, it's no wonder the ice cream line was so long.
