Minneapolis police chief Tim Dolan says the police department is at its highest diversity levels in the department's history. Dolan presented the figures to the city council this afternoon. He says the numbers are the result of successful recruiting efforts into the department's Community Service Officer program. Dolan says 30 percent of new hires and 18 percent of the city's 857 sworn officers are people of color.
