Special Patrol Group in Place for Fourth of July

Updated to reflect Andy Harrod is a lieutenant, not a sergeant. We apologize for the error.

A "stand-alone" group of police personnel will operate on the Fourth of July in addition to typical patrol staffing, Manhattan Beach Police Lt. Andy Harrod told Patch Wednesday.

The "special event team" in Manhattan Beach will consist of staff on four-wheel vehicles, bicycles, cars and foot in donwtown, the north end, beach and city parks, he said.

What will you do on the Fourth during the day and where will you be to watch fireworks?
