SRO’s play an important role in the lives of their students. Don’t underestimate your influence you’re having on the students. Great work by this Deputy!

A suicidal teen asked for his School Resource Deputy last night, who was able to talk him safely down from the Worlds of Fun water tower.

Kansas City Missouri Police Department responded to a call of a teen who ran away at 9:37 p.m. May 24. They located him actively climbing the water tower at 5016 N. Bristol. He ascended close to the top, an estimated 115 feet off the ground. The teen said he wanted to speak only with Deputy Bransfield, the School Resource Deputy at his middle school. Kansas City Police called Deputy Bransfield, who arrived about 10:15 p.m.

The teen told Deputy Bransfield he wanted him to come so he could say good-bye and thank him for all he’d done for him. Deputy Bransfield engaged him in conversation about his struggles, and after about 40 minutes, he was able to convince the boy to climb down safely.

An ambulance then transported the teen for mental health treatment.
