    HIGH POINT — The city recently changed the long-standing design of the prominent shoulder patch that adorns the uniform of High Point Police Department officers, and some folks aren’t thrilled about it.

    The new patch has the same dark blue, black and gold color scheme and a similar design as the nearly 40-year-old design of the patch that is being phased out: The old one has the state of North Carolina in gold with a blue star marking the spot where High Point is, while the new patch also has the state in gold but features a black horizontal line to the left of a blue dot where High Point is. The dot echoes the dot that is in the city’s new overall brand symbol.
