Avon E-Newsletter - September 2023

Avon Police Department

In July, Avon Officers made over 400 traffic stops in their efforts to reduce traffic accidents and other related traffic issues.

Officers Pete Michael and Officer Will Richards were both recognized at the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute luncheon for their efforts in the fight against impaired driving. Both were selected for having the most OWI/DWI arrests. Officers Michael and Officer Richards are also being recognized by Mother Against Drunk Driving (MADD) for their efforts over the past year.

Officer Sam Sims and K9 Ricsi both completed their training in July, which entailed a five-week patrol school and three weeks of narcotic detection school.

Officer Eric Cheek has completed all his field training and is now working a regular shift. Officer Cheek is also an advanced firearms instructor and will join our firearms training team.
