Joe Quisler

Officer Joe Quisler, who is trying to spearhead a series of initiatives to curb the recent spate of vandalism, says the spike in graffiti is just one symptom of a rise in juvenile recklessness plaguing the downtown area.

Petty crime -- vandalism, disorderly conduct, loitering -- has been gradually rising with the temperature, Quisler said.

Quisler is contemplating a variety of ways to address the problem, including a loitering ordinance, asking stores to offer paint discounts for victims of graffiti, and even broadcasting classical music on Main Street.

"We're trying to stay on top of these small problems and address them before they get to be bigger problems," Quisler said.

That's why extra Stevens Point Police officers, like Joe Quisler and John Moss, are put on the streets to keep watch over the crowds.
...
They still have to behave responsibly and make good judgments," says Stevens Point Police Department Reserve Shift Supervisor Joe Quisler.
...
So you have to be careful for that," says Officer Quisler.
