 Just Doing Their Job

Whether it’s a drug bust or a minor traffic stop; the Novi police are only doing their job. It’s now been over 50 years of hard work and dedication that the Novi police force has done its job to protect and serve the community. Just like a teacher helping students learn; police officers help the citizens of the community learn and abide by the rules of the law.

Police do not target certain individuals or age groups like some think; patrolling officers are simply out there working a long and hard 12 hour shifts, assuring the safety of the People and making sure no crimes are being committed.

Chief BeGoleChief MolloyAt the helm of the Novi police station, which is named after the great chief BeGole, Novi Police Chief David Molloy is proud to represent the Novi Police and the People of Novi. After taking over for Chief Chief ShaefferDoug Shaeffer, who tragically passed away at the age of 60 in August, Chief Molloy has filled in and fit the job perfectly. A hard worker and a husband and father to a family of his own, Chief Molloy does it all, and does it for the better of his community.

The Novi Police along with other cities are judged by some as dictators, who say they are the real “bad guys”. That is not true. Police are out there every day putting their life on the line, and dedicating their lives to helping others. Public safety is what police help achieve, and officers do this in an excellent manner here in Novi.
