Rockwall Police Department honors Wener Perez as Officer of the Year

ROCKWALL, TX (March 7, 2022) Each year, the Rockwall Police Department honors its sworn and civilian employees for their outstanding service to the community and department. Even amid many workplace challenges in 2021, all of the men and women of the Rockwall Police Department maintained the highest levels of professionalism and commitment. However, several individuals have distinguished themselves as people who exemplify the core values of this city. We will honor one a day over this week so please plan on checking back in to the Rockwall Police Department Facebook page each day to congratulate each recipient.

The Officer of the Year award is given to a police officer that has served as a sworn officer of the department for a minimum of two years and has shown outstanding service to the community and department. This year, Officer Wener Perez was selected to receive this distinction.

Officer Perez joined the Rockwall Police Department in February of 2017 after serving seven and a half years with the Dallas Police Department. Officer Perez is respected among his peers and supervisors and he has demonstrated that he is a competent professional and an effective crime-fighter. As a Field Training Officer, he helps to lay the foundation for the careers of new police officers and he also serves on the Honor Guard. Please join us in honoring Officer Perez, our 2021 Officer of the Year!
