Omaha police officer is stabbed; suspect in custody (UPDATED) [View all]
I'm a uniformed civilian IST for the Omaha Police Dept. I will retire Dec. 5th. My last position with the city has been the most rewarding.
Edit: I bought a "Real Men Wear Teal" fundraiser shirt. Omaha Officer Johnson has ovarian cancer. She already had a full plate as a mom that also raises her nephew and special needs niece.
