An internship like no other

SPD summer interns have been keeping busy. With classroom and in field exercises this is truly an internship like no other. Take a peek.

Recognizing great work

We continue to recognize great work both in the community and within our own ranks. Let’s spotlight just a few of examples of service, pride and dedication.

Michael Fast’s quick actions to intervene in an assault saved a woman’s life.

Officer Leroy Outlaw saw a serious car crash and provided CPR to a lifeless child who eventually made a full recovery.

Officer Jared Campbell’s quickly identified the signs of an overdose and provided CPR.

Officers Aaron Marshall, Joshua Vaaga, Cara Reardon, and Michael Gore all helped rescue a developmentally disabled person who had taken during an auto theft.

Mary Perry, who is retiring, has been a strong advocate for transparency in the Police Department as well as fighting for workplace equity, and for technological advancements to streamline efficiency.

SPD Harbor and Patrol officers rescued a dog earlier this month after he escaped from his doggie daycare, swam out into the lake and got stuck under a dock, which is perhaps to be expected when you’re a dog named INDIANA BONES!!!

Thieves use a variety of tricks to sneak into lockout apartments and condos. Once inside, they commit additional crimes, including mail and package theft, car prowl, and burglary. Keep secure buildings secure by ensuring lockout doors remain locked. pic.twitter.com/JAEIVqa9qm
