My name is Brandon Shourd . I am 22 years old. I grew up in Searcy and I graduated in 2000 from Searcy High School. I have been an employee with the Searcy Police Department since 2001. I worked in the Animal Control Division for just less than two years. In that time I developed a great compassion for animals. In 2003, I had the privilege of becoming a Patrolman. Since then, I have had the opportunity of working with some of the finest Officers in Law Enforcement. Prior to my career in law enforcement, I was a farmer in Georgetown.
