Please join us in congratulating Corporal Plack and Officer Cozzi on receiving the CIT Law Enforcement Commendation Award for their exceptional work during recent calls for service involving a life-threatening emergency and a juvenile experiencing a severe crisis.
Corporal Plack responded to a call of an individual attempting self-harm inside a running vehicle. With only a vague description of the residence and no specific address, he worked with the caller to identify the correct location.
When he arrived, Corporal Plack heard a vehicle running inside the garage. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, he located an unlocked rear door and immediately made entry. Inside, he was met with an overwhelming odor of exhaust fumes and discovered two vehicles running in the enclosed garage.
Without hesitation, Corporal Plack opened the garage door to begin ventilating the area and continued his search. He located a barely conscious individual against the back wall of the garage and quickly helped them to a safe location where they could receive medical treatment.
Corporal Plack then re-entered the hazardous environment and located a second occupant, safely escorting them outside as well.
Corporal Plack's rapid assessment, courage and willingness to place himself in danger to help others undoubtedly prevented what could have been a tragic outcome.
We are proud of Corporal Plack and the professionalism, bravery and commitment to service he demonstrated when it mattered most.
Officer Cozzi responded to a call involving a juvenile that was visibly overwhelmed, distressed and having difficulty self-regulating. Recognizing the situation required patience and understanding, Officer Cozzi used his crisis intervention training to slow things down, build rapport and establish trust.
Through a compassionate and patient approach, Officer Cozzi calmed the juvenile and ultimately persuaded him to voluntarily and peacefully accept transportation to the hospital.
The juvenile’s mother shared that previous law enforcement encounters during similar situations had routinely required the use of force. Officer Cozzi’s ability to recognize the individual's needs, communicate effectively and use de-escalation techniques helped prevent the situation from escalating while protecting the juvenile’s safety and dignity.
We are proud of the professionalism, compassion and dedication Officer Cozzi demonstrated during this difficult situation. His actions are an excellent example of how crisis intervention training and a patient, compassionate approach can make a meaningful difference for individuals and their families.
Congratulations, Corporal Plack and Officer Cozzi. Thank you for your commitment to serving our community.

Thank you!
Thank you and as always stay safe
Thank you. Stay safe.
Happy you are capturing these criminals
You guys need to do a report about how many infractions your office you got that week do you know I pulled the public record of the St Peter St Charles and Lawrence crimes indicate a lot of officers having fractions and they’re still wearing the badge just a month and a half ago so many police officers got fired in the St. Louis County for abusing their power. I wonder how many didn’t get caught.
