Armin Mayer, a police officer with heart and soul, loving and caring husband, dad, grandpa, died at the beginning of February at the age of 80. He was with the riot police for many years, and until his retirement he moved to the Dachau police as chief.
Armin Mayer introduced citizens' consultation hours in town halls and a visit by the police to citizens' meetings; he maintained contacts with communities, mayors and authorities. A clever move, which in contrast to the usual four shifts, has been successful in the long term.
