Today’s Good News
Kudos
to Second Precinct Sergeant Crystal
Simmons who was named the Department’s Sergeant
of the Month for March! With people like Sergeant Simmons leading our officers
in the field, the Department is in good hands.
Just this past month, Sergeant Simmons
coordinated bike patrols, directed patrols, warrant sweeps, truancy sweeps and
outdoor roll calls. She is a veteran of Second Precinct with a vast knowledge
of the area and the individuals within it. But more importantly, she has worked
diligently with her fellow sergeants and newer officers to share this
knowledge, which goes a long way toward making officers more productive and
better equipped to investigate crimes.
One of her problem-solving initiatives
last month resulted in a substantial reduction in crime in the Reedy Creek
neighborhood. While working with her officers, she came up with the idea to use
a detective vehicle for covert patrols in the targeted areas. This initiative
allowed officers to observe, identify and arrest suspects for a variety of
crimes. End result? A whopping 87.5 percent reduction in Reedy Creek’s Major
Crime numbers!
Additionally, this type of project
also has another benefit because it improves officer morale by changing the
daily routine and allowing officers to creatively attack problem areas. Thank
you and good work, Second Precinct Sergeant Crystal Simmons, our Sergeant of
the Month!
