  Pioneer Press -- With a click of a computer mouse, Capt. Brad Leach of the Burnsville Police Department calls up the telltale evidence left behind by a possible burglar or peeping tom.Before a roomful of patrolmen, the overhead projection screen displays a boot print recently left in the snow outside a resident's window, comparable to other prints found in the neighborhood.
  
  With a few more clicks, Leach leads the officers through a dozen more alerts, maps, patrol advisories and photos of suspects.

  Burnsville Police Capt. Brad Leach doesn't detect much wear and tear.
  
  But the Army veteran and career cop didn't hesitate to take the early retirement for which his birthday made him eligible.
  
  "I signed up for the military police when I was 17 years old.It was April 1974," said Leach, who finished his career in Burnsville Tuesday."Other than about a year and a half in college, and that was starting my law-enforcement degree, I've been in a uniform since then, since I was 18 years old.It's been a long time.We give up so much, and our families give up so much."
  
  His successor is a department veteran experienced enough to have trained many new officers but young enough to have learned from Leach.
  
  Eric Gieseke, 40, was sworn in Tuesday to replace Leach as captain of operations.
  ...
  "I started my career in a squad car with Brad," said Gieseke, of Lakeville.
  ...
  Leach exits the department as its jack-of-all-trades.
  
  Hired in 1982, he has served as patrol officer, Emergency Action Group member, firearms instructor, detective, narcotics agent, patrol sergeant, investigative sergeant and captain of both operations and support services.
  
  "And," he noted with a smile, "the primary training officer for Capt. Gieseke."Leach even field-trained Hawkins, his ex-boss.
  ...
  Leach and wife Paula have two children in their 20s and a second grandchild on the way.

  Brad Leach, the only other member of the public at the meeting, commented that the public might support such a plan because "you can see your money being spent."
  
  Both McGhee and Alderman Vivian Meins said the decision was up to the public."Let's put it before the people," Meins said.
  
  Leach said afterward he was "shocked" at the low turnout at the meeting."Anyone who travels through this city knows about the city street conditions," he said."They're not getting any better."

  The vehicle's 800-megahertz communications gear will allow agencies responding to an emergency to talk with one another without the hassles that come from working on different frequencies, said Burnsville police Capt. Brad Leach.
  
  The vehicle will have the technology to synthesize various communications media and create "interoperability" between agencies.
  
  Leach said limited communications between emergency responders was identified as the "No.1" problem in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001.
  ...
  The vehicle will have a weather station in addition to advanced communications technology, Leach said.Weather conditions on site could be crucial in the event of a tanker leak or chemical spill, he said.

  Burnsville Police Capt. Brad Leach still gets warm thoughts about a recent traffic stop he made where no English was spoken.At least, not by Leach.
  
  Leach used one of the department's newest gadgets, the Phraselator, to help communicate with a Spanish-speaking woman who had car trouble.
  ...
  Leach said that officers got two hits in the first two days of use last month on people who either didn't have identification or gave the police false names, and had arrest warrants out in their name.
  ...
  Leach said that the IBIS is helpful in dealing with shoplifters.
  ...
  Said Leach: "The concerns are that we're capturing information, but we only use it when there is a legal requirement to have ID with you, in the case of a traffic stop, or we've already detained."
  ...
  Leach said that similar vehicles he has seen are roughly 35 feet to 40 feet long.
  ...
  Leach said the vehicle is in the design phase and from what several vendors told him, there is a six-month build time.The grant must be used by the end of 2005.
