Officer Chambers is currently on military deployment and is serving our Country.

 

My name is Paul Chambers and I am one of the Community Patrol Officers for the Simpsonville Police Department.  I have been in the Criminal Justice profession since 1988.  Before that I served 4 years in the US Army where I was an Infantry Paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne Division and later a Drill Sergeant.

 

Since I have been in the Criminal Justice profession I have worked for the Greenville County Detention Center as a Detention Officer, the Laurens City Police Department and the Simpsonville Police Department.  I was originally hired in Simpsonville in 1992.  After working here for two years I left and was rehired in 1995. 

During my career I have attended numerous schools and have developed a diversified portfolio.  I have been awarded acknowledgement as a Traffic Safety Officer by the state of South Carolina.  This award was earned after receiving various certifications in traffic related courses.  I am a state certified Motor Vehicle Collision Reconstructionist and a Child Safety Seat Technician. 

In addition to being in the Community Support Division I also serve on the department’s training staff.  I instruct a variety of topics including firearms, police RADAR and Police Bike Patrol.  As a member of the Community Patrol Division I hope to utilize the skills and resources that I have acquired to better aid the community. 

After being assigned to the Uniformed Patrol Division for many years, I was assigned to the Community Support Division in January of 2002.  I am thoroughly enjoying this change.  I encourage citizens to contact me with concerns, ideas or suggestions that I may be able to assist with.  If you see me out on the road, either in the Community Patrol Blazer or on Bike Patrol, feel free to flag me down or just wave to say hello.  I truly believe that together you and I CAN make a difference.
