| Why Law Enforcement | When I graduated college I really didn’t know what I wanted to do. I had always wanted to be in law enforcement and knew that was an option. I decided quickly that I was going to pursue a career in law enforcement. I applied to the Wichita Police Department and was fortunate enough to get hired on. |
| First Arrest | My first arrest was a DUI. being a rookie I would say DUI investigations are the most difficult as there is a lot of paper work. I was dispatched to a call where a male “accidentally” backed over his wife with his vehicle. The male was intoxicated and taken to jail. |
| Best part of the job | The best part about this job is having the option of pursuing other avenues within the departnment. Wether an officer enjoys traffic or drug interdiction there is an Avenue for every officer. |
| Hobbies | While I am off duty I enjoy working out. I have recently started bodybuilding and will soon enter my first competition. The gym is where I find my serenity. I pride myself on looking good and in turn feeling good. I believe everyone should find what they love and go at it all in! Follow my instagram @dcartis. |
