Public Safety

 I am honored to introduce Officer Blake Weaver who was hired as a full-time police officer on August 23, 2021. Officer Weaver graduated from Memphis (MI) High School in 2002. He attended Central Michigan University and graduated from the Wayne County Regional Police Academy in 2015. He distinguished himself in the academy as he graduated #2 in his class out of 65 cadets.  

Weaver comes highly recommended from the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office where he worked for 13 years before coming to Harper Woods. He was last assigned to Tether Unit and was a member of the Special Response Team. Weaver studied psychology and states that he really enjoyed his time assigned to mental health floor at the jail. He added that his experience in mental health and education will be an asset to the department as law enforcement makes positive changes when encountering those in crisis. Weaver’s previous supervisors described him as an honest and straightforward man of good character. Harper Woods has gained an asset. 

For those residents who love Halloween or a good horror story, Weaver is a horror movie fan and in his off time writes short horror stories.

Please join me in welcoming Officer Blake Weaver to our team and wishing him much success in his career.
