Wilcox Receives Chief’s Commendation
Key West Police Chief Donie Lee today presented Megan Wilcox with a Chief’s Commendation.
“You went above and beyond the line of duty,” he said, “by going the extra mile to secure ammunition for training.”
Wilcox, who runs the Department’s property and evidence unit, recently contacted the owner of eleven cases of 12-gauge ammunition that was collected as a found property in a local hotel. The out-of-town owner of the ammunition sought alternatives for retrieving her property. However, Wilcox recognized that the Department could use the ammunition for training purposes.
Wilcox presented this idea to the owner of the shotgun shells, who agreed and turned the 2,750 rounds to the Key West Police Department for training.
