Buster Quisenberry called wanting to talk about how nice one of our Officers was yesterday. His wife has very bad back problems and the Officer saw her walking out to get the paper, he stopped, asked her if she needed any help, she said no, but the Officer got out of the vehicle anyways and picked the paper up for her so she didn't have to. Mr. Quisenberry also said that the Officer waited in his vehicle until she was up the steps and inside the house before he left making sure she got inside safely. He wanted to express his appreciation and say how nice it was of the Officer to be so considerate. He said it truly reflects what a great Police Department the City of Paris has with Officers like this. He did not want anyone to contact him, just wanted to say thanks. Just in case I got his number 785-3295 and this happened at 2430 Beverly Dr sometime yesterday, 1'm assuming moming but when I asked he didn't answer, he is a little hard of hearing. By the way 269-Derek Belcher worked section 2 yesterday on Womack's shift. I thought you might like to hear this since we get so much bad information about our Officers, he was almost in tears talking to me about this and how it made him and his wife feel. Thanks, Nikki - Dispatch I asked Sgt. Moree to find out who this officer was and he determined it was you. I want to commend you for your actions and tell you how much I and the department appreciate what you did. w ~~t)U~i~,} The perception of the law enforcement community just took a hit from the recent much publicized dash cam video of a Dallas police officer's mishandled traffic contact. Your demonstration of concern and compassion for this lady demonstrated we have good officers out there who do understand the importance of compassion and caring for the citizens, even when it is not necessarily a law enforcement function. As you can tell, Mr. Quisenberry was impressed by you and your actions. Thank you for a very positive citizen contact. Sincerely, Bob Hundley Interim Chief of Police Cc/ File Sgt. Womack Interim Lt.
