K9 Officer Promoted to Sergeant

Kent Police Officer James Ennemoser takes over as day-shift sergeant

Kent Police Officer James Ennemoser recently joined the ranks of sergeant at the Kent Police Department. The department promoted Ennemoser, one of the station's K9 officers, this week, according to the department's website. The 15-year veteran of the police force most recently served as a road-unit officer on the midnight shift. His new role means he will serve as sergeant of the day shift. This spring, Ennemoser was among the 2012 Real Heroes award recipients recognized by the American Red Cross of Summit and Portage Counties. Last year, the Kent cop saved a 16-year-old boy from drowning in the Cuyahoga River. Editor's note: Kent Patch's Facebook followers saw this story first. Click here to follow us on Facebook.

Kent Police Capt. Paul Canfield has been serving as captain for the Kent Police Department for several weeks, but he officially took the oath of office Wednesday before Kent City Council. Canfield was promoted April 23 following five years as a shift lieutenant and a little more than one year as the department's administrative lieutenant. The department's newest captain organized and led the two Kent Citizens Police Academies and serves as a sniper with the Metro SWAT team. As captain, Canfield manages patrol operations, scheduling, patrol training, jail operations, K-9 operations and special events for the department. Canfield was sworn in by Kent Safety Director William Lillich.
