Captain Little, Morgan, UT born and bred. Graduate law enforcement and engineering, Weber State University.
After thanking Captain Little for a pancake breakfast, LSDM posed the Park City Police Special Ops Bureau head some questions.

LSDM: What's the tone of city council support for the local cops?
DL: Very good relationship with and support from the City Council.

LSDM: What's the tone of resident support for the local cops?
DL: Very good. Strong support of local cops by Parkites runs against the grain of what many of our fellow policemen experience around the country.

LSDM: What's up with the alleged road rage related homicide in the Rock Cliff section of Jordanelle State Park?
DL: That jurisdiction is in Wasatch County but our area has a joint task force for these types of crimes of which I'm the head. What you saw in the paper is all that can be revealed at this point. There are currently no suspects or persons of interest. We hope to know more by the beginning of next week.

Note: LSDM also met Park City Police Captain Rob McKinney, Field Operations Bureau when he served us pancakes.
