CLINTON — A Clinton Police Department officer recently was promoted to sergeant and took his oath Monday at the city council meeting.
Officer Tom Anderson was promoted to sergeant, and city clerk Cheryl Van Valey administered his oath during Monday’s meeting.
“It’s my pleasure to announce the promotion of officer Tom Anderson to the rank of sergeant,” said chief of police Ben Lowers.
Anderson joined the Clinton department in February 2018. He has 21 years of law enforcement experience and is a U.S. Army veteran. Anderson graduated from the Northwestern School of Police Staff and Command, operated by Northwestern University.
