In July 2021, Sergeant Shayna Kendall conducted an unauthorized traffic stop while off-duty, using her unmarked police vehicle’s emergency lights. She failed to identify herself, did not activate her body camera, and did not report the stop. An internal affairs investigation found she violated multiple department policies. Kendall was placed on paid administrative leave in April 2022 and was terminated in August 2022 following the Board of Police Commissioners’ vote.
