I see you!

I see you!
Mikael Ericson, also known as the doctor, in action at Stortorget. He sees everything, so you better not try anything! He moved in to the new police station at Bollhusgränd earlier this year, but is a well known face for everyone in the old town since a number of years, he found and closed down five apartment brothels during one busy year with the help of a few nosy neighbors. The new station is open for anyone to drop in a few hours every week for a chat with Mikael about whatever. He already knows everyone, so if something happens here he will usually get a phone call, or a text message about it and will be on site within a couple of minutes. When I posted this photo at flickr, one of his colleagues, a long time flickr contact to me, left a comment saying that Mikael was a legend without a PhD. Oh, and about the nickname, he once declared a person for dead when in fact the person was very much alive!

An excellent image about exactly the kind of law enforcement officer most cities would love to have. My hat is off to him.
