Lab Investigator Eryn Hageman has been chosen as the Police Officer of the Year and Reserve Officer Tyler McCormack has been chosen as Reserve Officer of the Year. They will be honored by the Waterloo Exchange Club during their meeting at the Elks Club on February 23 at noon.

 

Lab Investigator Hageman has been a member of the Waterloo Police Department since 2004. She has served in the patrol and investigation units. She is currently assigned to the investigation unit crime lab. She is trained as a technical collision investigator, a field training officer, and has received advanced forensic training in bloodstain pattern analysis and marijuana identification. She has been the lead lab investigator in several homicides and is always willing to assist other lab personnel in their cases. In whatever tasks she undertakes, she has displayed professionalism, compassion, and extreme competence. The one attribute in particular that was cited in her nomination, and one that she displays day in and day out, is her positive attitude. Her supervisor, Sergeant Kerry Devine, said, “Her work ethic affects others around her to strive to do better in their duties”.

 

Reserve Officer Tyler McCormack has been a Reserve Waterloo Police Officer since 2012. At the police department he has fully committed himself to the reserve unit. He constantly has a smile on his face and goes out of his way to assist others. Tyler has taken the training he obtained to become a reserve officer and has applied it not only to his duties at the Waterloo Police Department, but even when not engaged in formal police duties. In an incident last year, one subject attacked another in a parking lot with a baseball bat. When the on-duty, responding officers arrived on scene, an off-duty Tyler had taken the initiative to secure the crime scene and was controlling the forming crowd.

 

Both Lab Investigator Hageman and Reserve Officer McCormack have proven themselves to be assets to the community.
