Motorcycle Officer Chad Swanson, who died early Oct. 4, embodied the “spirit of the MBPD” and was “the best of the best,” said Police Chief Rachel Johnson.
Manhattan Beach Police Department Det. Ajdukovic attends a vigil at the pier for police officer Chad Swanson on Friday, October, 6, 2023. Hundreds of beach city residents and law enforcement personnel from agencies far and wide honored the memory of Manhattan Beach Police Officer Chad Swanson on Friday evening, Oct. 6.
Before the ceremony, Councilmember Amy Howorth said it was important city leaders be there for the police department, for all city employees and especially for Swanson’s family.Four of Swanson’s fellow MBPD officers spoke at the ceremony at Civic Center Plaza: Capt. Andrew Enriquez and Officers Kyle McCammon, Donovan Torres and Mike Lynch.
Enriquez said Swanson was generous, but “never wanted recognition for his kindness or his generosity.” The loss of Swanson was particularly poignant as the 13-year MBPD officer was known as fun-loving, jovial and always ready with a smile, said MBPD Chief Rachel Johnson. Despite catching a bullet fragment in the arm, Swanson still went back and forth carrying people to safety and applying tourniquets.
