    Sergeant Ahles was appointed to the department on February 11, 1994. Asa
    new Patrol Officer, he was assigned to the Community Services Bureau Patrol
    Section. In 2002 he went to the Neighborhood Impact Section until his
    promotion to Sergeant on February 14, 2005. As a Sergeant he transferred
    back to the Neighborhood Impact Section on September 8, 2015, where he
