Deputy of the Year 2019 Andrew Briggs
During
the Black Hawk County Law Enforcement Association's annual Christmas
party, Sheriff Tony Thompson announced the 2019 Deputy of the Year,
Andrew Briggs.
Deputy
Briggs was recognized for his extraordinary efforts both in his daily
assignments and also in his extra duties as a field training officer, a
defensive tactics instructor, a member of the motorcycle unit, a SWAT
sniper, and a member of the Water Safety Patrol. His positive attitude
and natural leadership abilities were also noted as reasons for this
special recognition. "He is someone that the rest of the staff looks up
to", says Sheriff Tony Thompson, "and he loves the job and makes the
agency look good while he's doing it."
