Plano PD Information Officer Awarded For Informing Public

PLANO, TX — Nextdoor, the app used to contact neighbors share important information with residents of cities across the United States, has named Plano Police Department's Officer David Tilley as one of the 2018 Neighborhood Champions in Law Enforcement.

Tilley was chosen from a pool of 900,000 law enforcement officers on Nextdoor and awarded one of only 35 such victories.
