Whether it's the "Electric Slide," "Achy Breaky Heart" or the "Cha Cha Slide," nothing gets a crowd going like a good line dance. I remember when my sons swam competitively, every home swim meet ended with the kids and parents doing the "Cupid Shuffle." That song is also getting a lot of attention for one high-ranking police officer this month.

Milwaukee's acting police chief, Jeffrey Norman, was caught on camera at Milwaukee Police District Three's National Night Out event at a city park. Watch as the chief busts a move to the "Cupid Shuffle" with some folks from the neighborhood.

After a year of negative news about police departments across the nation, it's good to see something like this. Even if it's for just a few minutes in a park, this kind of positive interaction can be a step toward repairing fractured relations.
