Today’s Good News
Kudos
to Officer Joseph Dillon who was
named Second Precinct’s Officer of the
Month for December! Officer
Dillon’s attitude, motivation and enthusiasm play a huge part in his effective
patrols. Last month, he responded to 93 radio calls, 16 self-initiated calls and assisted 15 other
calls in addition to 15 walking hours of patrol.
This would explain why he is well
known and trusted by residents in Sector 213. Officer Dillon frequently stops
by businesses in order to get to know the business owners and employees. He
also gives out robbery prevention tips to help with reducing crimes in the area
and makes it a priority to be visible in his sector because he’s found it’s a good
deterrent to quality of life issues such as prostitution and narcotics.
Late in the month, Officer Dillon was
thanked for great police work by a commonwealth’s attorney when handling a
domestic assault call that led to a conviction. Officer Dillon went the extra
step and got a written statement from both the victim and witness, which the
prosecutor said was key in getting a conviction. Thank you and congratulations
Officer Joseph Dillon!
