As a vendor who works adjacent to the Minnesota State Fairgrounds, I commend the St. Paul police officers who worked tirelessly ensuring safe passage for fairgoers crossing busy Snelling and Como Avenues. Not only were these officers professional in their duties, they exceeded the job requirements by initiating conversation, answering questions and generally being very friendly and congenial toward everyone they encountered. Well done!
