RIDGEWOOD — Mike Feeney has a chief’s badge. It comes from the Ridgewood Police Department.

It doesn’t matter that Mike is only 9, or that he’s battling a rare form of cancer that affects the bones and soft tissues in his body.

“I told him a chief’s work goes home with him,” said Chief John Ward, who earlier this year designated Mike honorary chief for all of 2013.

Mike is one of nearly 20 students who’ve recently signed up for the Ridgewood Police Department’s new Community Policing Youth Ambassador Program.

  1. Thanks for sharing this story and link……
    Mike Feeney (the kid) is better looking than our current Police Chief.

    Ha, Ha.

  2. Very nice story. He is one tough little son of a gun.
