New Detroit police officer says he’s finishing the career his brother never got to complete

The Detroit Police Department welcomed its largest graduating class of the year, awarding badges to 42 new officers. Among them, Ahmed Said marked the occasion by honoring his late brother, Melvindale Police Corporal Mohammed Said, who was killed in the line of duty in 2024. The ceremony was marked by both celebration and lingering grief, particularly for the Said family, as Ahmed begins his service hoping to build trust and support within the community.
