Kudos
to Officer Stephen Butler who was
named First Precinct’s Officer of the
Month for July! Officer
Butler may be one of the younger officers, but you wouldn’t know it from the
leadership skills he exemplifies and all the work he does. One example occurred
when he and Officer Kevin Hyde
stopped a man walking in the road in Whitcomb Court. Thanks to their attention
to detail and further investigation, they learned the man was not only hiding a
firearm on his person, but he was also hiding the fact that he was a convicted
felon.
But Officer Butler also takes the time to
volunteer for community events to interact with residents and build
relationships. He twice volunteered for community walks last month to hand out
safety tip flyers and contact information. He also took great pride when he
received a challenge from his sector lieutenant to find ways to combat drug
dealing, car break-ins and burglaries in his sector. He answered by using
alternative patrols on foot and directed patrols that produced several quality
arrests and 14 field interviews that developed several property crime suspects
for detectives. Thank you and congratulations Officer Stephen Butler!
