After 24 years of dedicated service to the Pasadena Police Department and the citizens of Pasadena, we would like to congratulate Sergeant M. Norman on his retirement.
Sgt. Norman began his career with the Pasadena Police Department in 1999 as a graduate of the 49th Basic Police Academy. Sgt. Norman worked on patrol to start his career, where he had collateral duties in Bike Patrol, Honor Guard, and S.R.T.
In 2004, Mike was promoted to the Rank of Sergeant, where he served as a patrol and property crimes supervisor. Before finishing his career, Sgt. Norman was instrumental in creating the Drone Unit and was last assigned to the Internal Affairs Division.
Thank you, Sgt. Norman, for your many years of faithful service to our community. We wish you the best as you begin this next chapter in your life.
