City of Fort Lauderdale Police Department

Officer of the Year

2009

CARL HANNOLD & JOSEPH HANNOLD

Last year the City of Fort Lauderdale was plagued with a dramatic increase in burglaries throughout the Southwest portion of our City. To address this issue, you were selected to fully dedicate your attention to combat these burglaries. This was intended to be a temporary action plan; however, your efforts were so productive that you were encouraged to continue your quest in identifying, locating and apprehending burglars.

During 2009, your efforts resulted in a total of 90 felony and misdemeanor arrests. Forty-five of those arrests were for burglary, 12 were for disorderly conduct, 8 were for grand theft, 6 were for prowling, 6 were for outstanding warrants, 5 were for narcotics, 4 were for trespassing and 3 were for battery including one for battery on a fellow police officer.

In addition, you were recognized by the City of Fort Lauderdale for your accomplishments and presented with numerous awards. In August of 2009, you were named as Officer of the Month for your efforts combating burglars in Southwest Fort Lauderdale. In January 2010, you were awarded Honorable Mention for Officer of the Month due to your continued efforts at the end of 2009. You have received 8 positive counseling slips, 4 Investigations Bureau Commendations, 2 Shift Level Commendations and 3 letters of appreciation from the public.

Your hard work and dedication extended beyond the scope of the original temporary action plan. You took it upon yourself to visit our Crime Analysis Unit and analyze crime patterns. You strategically planned surveillances and apprehended numerous burglary-in-progress suspects that led to the clearance of investigations.

The quality and level of work that you deliver is not only appreciated by the Police Department but is well appreciated by our City residents that you are sworn to protect and serve. You are hereby commended on a job exceptionally well done



Franklin C. Adderley
Chief of Police
