During the city council meeting on Tuesday night, Officer Wiggins and Sergeant Enea were honored with a certificate of recognition for their life-saving efforts. The award presentation was conducted by our interim Police Chief, Don Mort, who shared the following remarks.
“It’s a pleasure to be back in front of you again tonight. Seems like it was just yesterday, but as I said two weeks ago, we’ve got an exceptional department and this makes me proud to be here tonight to award two of them for a life-saving effort that they did back on Sunday, January 5th. It’s rare that we get these opportunities. It’s stellar work on their part and truly showed what it is to preserve life and property here in the city.”
“On January 5th at approximately 12:45 in the afternoon, the two officers, Officer Wiggins and Sergeant Enea responded to a medical call on Clayton Road and Mitchell Canyon Road. The husband of the female driver reported that his wife had stopped breathing, and on arrival, Officer Wiggins located the female driver and found in fact she wasn’t breathing and didn’t have a pulse. Sergeant Enea arrived shortly thereafter and the two of them removed her from the car and started medical treatment with CPR compressions to try to get the driver back to life.”
“They arrive prior to Consolidated Fire. That’s how quick they were on the scene. Consolidated Fire eventually came and they were able to take over the CPR efforts and revive the woman and able to get a pulse back. Consolidated Fire made comments afterward, that certainly if it wasn’t for the officers doing what they did, good likelihood this woman would not have been alive today. Two days after the event Sergeant Enea followed up and the woman was alive. She didn’t recall the details; she was still at John Muir Hospital and the prognosis was good and was going to continue her life.”
“It’s a great pleasure that I bring this to your attention tonight. I think the two of them are exceptional people. I think they did a fantastic job and it makes me proud to be honored to give them a Certificate of Appreciation for what they did that day.”
Clayton Watch and the Clayton Community extends our heartfelt gratitude to the Clayton Police for their exceptional service and dedication to ensuring the safety of our community. Once the Certificates of Recognition are ready at City Hall, we will share them with our audience for everyone to view.
Great job Officer Wiggins and Sergeant Enea. We are very fortunate that Clayton has such a great police force.
ReplyDeleteThe Clayton police are the best! Thanks for keeping us safe.
ReplyDeleteClayton has the best police force! We are all so lucky to have such qualified personnel here, and thank you to their families for sharing them with us.
ReplyDeleteAnd to think someone on the city council had the nerve to say our police are racist and that they profile.
DeleteDon’t forget the sundown comment.
DeleteIt was a photo opportunity, so of course, THAT person had to have their picture with the officers. It sure wasn’t because she supported them.
DeleteDespite THAT person, Clayton has the best police force, and I support all our officers. Thank you, Clayton PD!

“We are living in an unprecedented time together, and sometimes the range of emotions can be overwhelming. There is a lot going on in Clayton right now— highly charged issues like housing, racism, “residents being profiled by police” and neighbors feeling unwelcome.”
Watch the following video and then tell me she loves our community. If she did, she would’ve pushed back against the individuals that made the “sundown” comments, but she didn’t. https://www.claytonwatch.org/p/blog-page.html

DeleteClayton PD is the best! Thank you for your service.
ReplyDeleteDon’t forget. . . They Keep You Safe, Day and Night
ReplyDeleteAnd don't forget that someone has never retracted her statements or apologized to the community.
ReplyDeleteThank you Officer Wiggins and Sergeant Enea!
ReplyDeleteOfficer Wiggins and Sergeant Enea are true professionals. Clayton has a great police department and it's time Councilmember Tillman admits she lied when she said Clayton police profile. Either Holly solved this problem or it was just political grandstanding. Because Tillman remains silent on this issue we can draw our own conclusions, it was another example of Holly's follies.
ReplyDeleteHolly Tillman is a verified liar. No amount of her army having a tantrum abut that will change. She has said horrible things about our Police force, and they are true professionals even to tolerate her ungrateful, miserable presence.
DeleteThank you Clayton Police for your outstanding work. Know that the majority of residents support and appreciate you.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the statement that residents support Clayton PD. Where else can you call for help, receive it immediately, and know who is helping you? Great job, Clayton PD!
ReplyDeleteThe Clayton Police Department exemplifies safety and security; they may not always be in the spotlight, but their unwavering dedication to our town’s safety and security is a source of comfort for us all. Thank you, Clayton PD, for your outstanding service!

DeleteI love our Clayton PD❤️❤️
