Reimagined Policing, Unarmed Milwaukee 'Community Service Officer' Is Shot And Killed During A Dispute About Grass Clippings With Muslim Neighbor

Many far left Democrats have given in to the rioting and looting mobs and have agreed to “reimagine” policing, but it can have deadly effects.

Part of the reimagining of police includes sending psychologists and social workers, who are unarmed, in lieu of armed police officers to certain calls.

Among those calls would likely be minor neighbor disputes, like one community service officer had with his neighbor in Milwaukee when he was shot and killed, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported.

Community Service Officer Naeem Sarosh, 35, was attempting to complain about grass clippings to his neighbor Mohammed Afzal, 65, when Afzal responded by shooting and killing him.

Afzal said he answered the door with his gun in has hand and fired it because Sarosh had his hands in his pockets and he believed he could have a weapon.

This was not a call that Sarosh was called to, but this is the type of situation a community service officer would be called to, unarmed, according to a press release from 2006 that describes what a community service officer would be in Milwaukee.

“The final report of the Community Services Staffing Task Force, chaired by Ald. Terry L. Witkowski, calls on the Common Council to pass enabling legislation to create the community service officer position,” the press release said.

“The CSO would be a civilian position in the police department that responds to non-emergency calls for service, traffic control, traffic incidents and other matters not requiring an armed...
