Itโ€™s who you are even when you are off the clock. When Sgt. J. Ferguson came across a stranded motorist on a busy roadway, he didnโ€™t hesitate to pull over and help. Although he wasnโ€™t on duty, he made sure they were safe and helped them get out of harmโ€™s way. Here is a message from a fellow citizen who saw Sgt. Fergusonโ€™s act of selfless service. โ€œWe were on Newberry Rd around HCA hospital in heavy traffic the other day and noticed a stalled SUV in the middle lane. One man was trying to push it out of the way up hill by himself, and people were honking and going around them. My husband got out to help, and thatโ€™s when I realized who the man was... Sergeant James Ferguson. (The only reason I knew who he was <because he was in plain clothes> is because we were both Chaperones for the DC trip a few years ago...although I thought he was working the trip instead of just being a โ€˜regularโ€™ Chaperone because of how diligent he was in helping our SRD Miller with maintaining our safety the entire trip) Once I realized who he was, I was not surprised that he was the one who stopped to help. (He also brought the woman to the gas station to get her gas after they got her SUV to a safe place. ) Whether on the field trip in DC or every day at home in Gainesville, Sgt. Ferguson is always looking out for others. We are thankful for him, and all LEOโ€™s, every day!โ€ WE SEE YOU, SGT. FERGUSON!

Perez after he helped her yesterday during a call for service. The community member made sure to reach out to DS Perezโ€™s supervisor to make sure they knew he was an asset to our agency. Here is a portion of the message that was passed along: โ€œShe wanted me to know that D/S Perez listened to her issue and, through his professional demeanor and communication, made her feel heard and safe. This compliment falls in line with what I have noted regarding D/S Perezโ€™s routine way of speaking to those that call for help.โ€ WE SEE YOU, DS A. PEREZ!
