Today we remember K-9 Nicky, who was shot and killed by friendly fire while apprehending an armed subject. Officers had responded to the area after reports that the subject had been firing shots. Nicky was deployed as officers attempted to take the subject into custody. The man opened fire, forcing officers to return fire as K-9 Nicky bit the subject. One round struck Nicky, killing him.

It was later determined that the man had murdered two of his mother’s neighbors, who had come to her assistance as he fought with her. The subject later died of the gunshot wounds that occurred during the fight with officers.

Nicky had just returned to duty after recovering from wounds inflicted by a machete during an apprehension in February 2015.

A few months ago during SHOT Show, Dakota Meyer and Tim Kennedy stopped by a local gym to get a work out in with some of the Valley's first responders.

The turnout was incredible. The LVPPA would like to say thank-you to Dakota and Tim for their service to this great nation and for spending some time one morning with these men and women who hang their asses on the line every time they walk out of the front door.

And to those who are out there training, well done. You can never train too hard for a job that can kill you.

As part of the LVMPD's Good Ticket Program, officers honored 9-1-1 dispatcher Salina Freeman on Monday for remaining calm under pressure while talking a mother out of hurting her baby in May 2022. Our public safety dispatchers are truly the "calm among the chaos" and are an integral part of our profession. Kudos to Salina!

Dramatic moments revealed when a 911 operator stops a woman from trying to kill her baby.In May of 2022, a local woman dialed 911 to say she wanted to kill her

On November 19, 2009, Las Vegas Metro Police Officer Trevor Nettleton was killed in the line of duty after being engaged in a gunfight.

His is survived by his wife, his 2-year-old son and 2-month-old daughter.

Trevor’s son, Tanner, is now a member of an elite hockey squad (the Oshawa Generals) in Canada. The LVPPA is proud to be a sponsor of the team.

It’s a way for us to remind Tanner that every time he hits the ice, his dad and his 3,350 brothers and sisters of Las Vegas Metro are right there with him and his team.

This week we received this awesome plaque from the team. It’s up on our wall!

Keep kicking ass, Tanner and Roll Gens.

LVMPD Dispatcher Tiffany Grammas Retires After 15 Years of Dedicated Service

Typically, the members of the Executive Board write their articles for publication. This article will be different. After 15-plus years of service to the community and LVMPD, my amazing wife, Tiffany Grammas, retired from her position as your dispatcher. I wanted to give her a forum to write an article addressed to those who have meant so much to her, those being her officers on the other end of the radio.
