Hi Mr. Stollenwerk,
This email is in response to your email dated June 30, 2007.
I wanted to thank you for bringing up potential training issues for our officers regarding how they interact with persons openly carrying firearms within the City of Alexandria. In response to the issues you raised, I am coordinating legal training through our Commonwealth Attorney's Office to provide our staff with legal updates associated with open carry laws.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call me at 571-221-8503.
Thank you.
Hassan
