    BALTIMORE, Maryland (WBAL) — The path to becoming police commissioner requires hard work and dedication.

A Baltimore school student got to experience that firsthand.

Treasure Mack, 11, took the oath of office and donned Richard Worley’s jacket to become “Commissioner for a Day.”

Treasure got a tour of police headquarters and even met with the police department’s top officers.

Her visit was part of the community violence deterrent program at the nonprofit UniFIED Efforts Inc. The program’s goal is to showcase careers in law enforcement to elementary school-age children.
