Palos Park promotes Diana Campbell to sergeant

The village of Palos Park recently announced the promotion of 20-year veteran police Officer Diana Campbell to sergeant.

Throughout her career Campbell has received many accolades, including being awarded The Palos Lions Club 2019 Officer of the Year. A couple years before that she was awarded a Life Saving Award after a 911 caller reported an elderly man in full cardiac arrest. She assessed the patient, found he was not breathing, started CPR and continued for three minutes until help arrived.

Campbell was officially sworn in on June 26.
