MPD’s New Third District Commander Seeks ‘Community Partnership’

Engaging with locals is a chief concern for the Third District’s new top cop.

Commander Stuart Emerman, who took over as the area’s leading officer when former Commander Jeffrey Carroll left for the Special Operations Division last month, introduced himself at last night’s ANC 2F meeting in Logan Circle.

“The Third District has been home for me,” said Emerman, who has previously served as a sergeant and a lieutenant in the district that includes Adams Morgan, Columbia Heights, Park View and Shaw. “Community partnership is very big to me. … I want to keep those lines of communication open.”

The new commander added that if residents have tips, questions or concerns, they’re welcome to email or call him directly using the contact information found on this page.

“I’ve been around pretty much everywhere in the department that you can be,” Emerman said. “I’m happy to be back here in the Third District. It’s really a good fit for me.”
