Police detail lifesaving rescue and monthly activity numbers to council
Summary
Captain Mullsh briefed council on a lifesaving award for two deputies who rescued a resident from a house fire and presented monthly call statistics including 4,542 calls for service and 1,876 preventative patrols in May.
Captain Mullsh reported that two deputies — Deputy Frasier and Deputy Garcia — were recognized by the county for lifesaving actions after responding to a house fire in April in which they located and removed a woman from the burning residence; one other person in the house did not survive. "They were able to actually ... get her out," Captain Mullsh said as he described the rescue and the county award presentation.
The captain presented May activity totals: 241 incident reports and 4,542 total calls for service (including 1,876 preventative patrols), 261 911 hang‑ups, 129 alarm calls and 197 civil paper services. He also noted 13 ABC inspections and a quarterly department meeting. Council members asked clarifying questions about accidental 911 hang‑ups and the awards; the captain reiterated that deputies respond to all 911 calls, accidental or not, because callers may be in distress.
Council thanked the deputies for their response and for service to the community.
