| PORT ALLEN, La. (AP) - Maj. Zack Simmers used to workout far more frequently in high school and college but slacked off in his adult years. But today, the 31-year-old chief of the West Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Office’s Narcotics Division exercises daily - and for free - in a facility paid for through the work Simmers and his colleagues on the force do every day to get illegal drugs off the street. “Doing this job, most of the time we interact with people who don’t want to hurt us. But sometimes they do,” Simmers said. “So we need to be physically fit to be prepared for that day. And you can’t do that sitting on the sofa eating doughnuts all day.” Last year, Sheriff Mike Cazes used approximately $150,000 of revenue his office generated in asset forfeiture funds from drug arrests to build a Fitness Wellness Center.
