Edina Police Department Swears In Two Officers
Edina, Minn., Oct. 27, 2016 – Officers Paul Hooper and Darren Davis, Jr. were sworn into the Edina Police Department Thursday, Oct. 27, in the Council Chambers at City Hall, surrounded by friends and family.
Prior to coming to Edina, Davis, Jr. was a probation officer for Dodge, Fillmore, Olmstead (DFO) Counties. He was also a corrections officer for a short time with DFO. Davis holds bachelor’s degree from Winona State.
Hooper has been a Minnesota police officer for more than 10 years. He was in Mound for seven years and Orono for three. He graduated from Maplewood Academy in Hutchinson, Minnesota. Hooper said he looked forward to the “great opportunity for career development” within the Edina Police Department.
“The Edina Police Department has picked these two people, whom we believe will fit into the culture of our department. We were looking for people who have a high level of integrity with a strong desire to perform quality work, people who are genuinely concerned about providing the best customer service to our residents, and, lastly, people who will fit into our family we call the Edina Police Department,” said Police Chief Dave Nelson.
Davis was pinned with badge No. 159 by his father, Darren Davis, Sr. and wife, Kendra. Davis’ parents travelled from Illinois to be at the ceremony. Hooper was pinned with badge No. 158 by his wife, Angela. His family came from Minnetonka to watch the ceremony.
“I look forward to having the opportunity to influence and promote a directed effort to restore the trust in law enforcement as a whole,” said Davis, Jr.
